My DBing efforts, as laughable as they may seem to some, appear to be paying off when I got two comments from friends:
"Can I tell you something? You are NOT your failed marriages. They don't define you or describe you. You are a loving father. A good friend and a Godly man. Satan is a bastard and he will do everything to whisper lies in your ear and tear you down. You are good. You are free. You are worth it."
From a different friend, repeating what I said earlier:
"I'm disappointed. I really wanted W to become the wonderful woman you believed she was inside."
