Question for the officially divorced

[g450]

I agree with you CG. Not having children does NOT make it easier.

My XW told me she wanted to wait until our Son was grown and moved out before she kicked me to the curb. And she did exactly that.

So there I was hurting because our only Son left us with the dreaded "empty nest" syndrome. I told her we still had each other and would take care of each other and retire together. Little did I know that she was having an affair and made plans to leave me forever.

So for me it was a Triple whammy! Empty nest, divorce and then finding out about her affair. BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!.

Still though I feel for the children in divorce. They are the ones that are really hurt by it. And I hate people that say otherwise or that they "will be OK". It's BS to justify their own selfishness and ego.
