Thanks Kaffe. It amazes me that people here, whom I have never met, care more than the woman I married.
I have considered filing, but for financial reasons and for my kids, it's best that I stay with the original plan to do so next July. Once I have fully moved on in my mind, the rest is just paperwork, and a physical move.
As for dating, after 23 years (more than half my life)with one person, it will be odd. When it comes to intimacy, so many of my male friends say the things you would expect. I am just not there yet. 23 years of being faithful to one person and I still have no desire to be with someone new. It actually sickens me to think of STBX being with her Boss - especially because I fought him for her for 8 years. The thought of him enjoying his prize, is almost too much for me to handle. That is why I am glad to be at this point, of moving forward. Anything else was going to kill me in one way or another.
