I don't know about the financial outcome being difficult for the WAWs or perhaps my situation is the exception to the rule. STBXW will get more money than she ever had and I will get more debt than I've ever had.

I also don't think my WAS has much guilt or remorse. In her mind there's no such thing as right or wrong. If she's decided on something that's what she'll do and it doesn't matter what casualties there are along the way just as long as she gets what she wants. I don't think she wants to hurt anyone on purpose but she's oblivious to anyone else's suffering, most WAS are like that.

I'm glad to see that some of you are moving forward and enjoying your new lives. Personally, while I can't say I'm enjoying my new life but it's not too bad. I do miss not having someone to love and share my deepest thoughts with but as of late I've come to the conclusion that I'm probably better off alone. All the heartache, expectations etc is it really worth it? I used to think so but not so much anymore.
