KG you are one of the bravest women I've never met.
Kudos to you.
And if my son were mistreated, I'd tell him to get some mc. OR attend a workshop but I would not easily welcome a new woman if my son had married. And i would NEVER abandon the mother of my grandchildren...
Am about to meet s25's gf for the first time. Also the first time he's flown a girl out to meet us so I'm guessing she's the one. So far all I know is she's beautiful and smart and atheist and very different politically. Should be fun!!
If she loves my son the way he deserves, I'll never have a problem with her. IF she makes mistakes, I'll remember that I did too.
And don't overlook all that you accomplished...you say you feel the competition is steep with ow
and let's say she's a great catch. Let's all buy that for a minute. Did she work full time and have 3 kids in 4 years?
oh...she didn't? Gee, wonder how great she'd have always been if she had been in your shoes...
someday you may want to mention to your h that YOU get how YOU bought into a myth...that a woman can be like the woman in the commercial and have a demanding full time job, kids at the most demanding age at the same time and be married to a man with a career and always want sex and it'll always be great sex...
Not that you blame him but that YOU now realize it was unrealistic of you...let him stew in that for a bit...
but you won't make that mistake again...
Good grief, you have a 6 month old!! Of course his family has a problem with that...
(btw, if you ever get the chance, and I don't even know where you live, attend a workshop called "Essential Experience" in Philadelphia.
It so profoundly changed me, and my life, that when h saw the changes in me, HE decided to go...and he changed too. We're much happier but it's for individuals so being a couple is not required.
Check out their website and if you can, get yourself there. Best gift to give yourself, ever...)
Again, I say WELL DONE!
