Hey Mr. Bond! Thank you for dropping in. I miss the support and energy here.
Completely loving and enjoying my time with our son over the past month and a half. He's happy and growing (physically and intellectually) way too fast for his age. He and mom Skype in the evening on weekdays, and he's (sadly) getting used to that norm. Even though my wife and I hardly ever communicate any more, when she does, it gets harsh or at the very least, laced with negative undertones towards me. In one of her texts to me, she made it obvious that she can't believe the court really granted me custody of our son, that the judge granted a pedophile safety.
That said, I've been meditating, praying and getting in-tune with myself and have made the decision to move on with my life. This decision hasn't come easily (I've talked to my family, preacher, friends, God), but after everything that has happened - especially over the past few months - I've requested my lawyers proceed with a bifurcation process. I feel like two years (0.5 years of mourning, 1.5 years of self-improvement/DBing/DRing) has brought me emotional and mental peace, confidence and strength, and I realize that it's time to cut the cord, at least from a legal standpoint.
Of course, I will keep DB/DRing. Yes, it was designed to possibly save marriages, but it, among others, also made (IMHO) a vastly better person out of me with 180s, GALs and so on.
