Going straight forward...antlers 6th thread.

[antlers]

They are so selfish and self-centered at this point, that they think of NO ONE but themselves. For the overwhelming majority of our relationship, I never knew her to be this way. But she is now, and has been since she decided to leave. I got so 'walked all over' for a long, long time after she left...I got stomped into the mud.

I wish I hadn't been the way I was during a lot of our relationship.

I've had true remorse, I repented, I shouldered what I had done, I apologized profusely, I tried to make amends and atone, I asked for forgiveness...and I changed.

But damn! I'm not going to be 'walked all over' any more...I'm not going to be stomped into the mud anymore. I'm fighting like a mutha' to come out of this awful divorce as well as I possibly can for my kids and myself.
