still separated, in limbo, still hopeful

Great Gatsby! Thanks for stopping by! I know I know I said Jan 1 but I was not ready. Someone else made a point of saying it is dangerous to set deadlines or timelines. I feel like since I started this ball of wax I have to proceed and go the course. That's why I am sooooo impressed you have the wherewithall to act before it gets out of hand! Seriously I did not discover divorcebusting until October 09!

Now this might sound harsh and I am not angry or "yelling" when I say it and it is annoying. BUT (sigh) once your child is born, you might have a different opinion about growing up in split homes. SORRY GATSBY- I just know that I had a preconceived idea of sharing S 50/50 when he was 1 and then he was born and I thought
1) how the hell could I be without him? and
2) that is selfish- he needs both mother AND FATHER

so because of 2) (and my own unresolved absent father issues lol!)

I chose a different path. SO I get the whole idea of wanting to believe your child will be okay but I am a teacher and have seen too much and I have a background (minor) in psychology and I know too much.

IGNORANCE IS BLISS PEOPLE!!!!!
