To Michele, 4 years later

[faithisbelieving]

After 4 years, my 13 year old son told me yesterday that 'mom regrets the divorce.'

I apologize to all the newbies here because, no, I am not getting back with my ex.

However, statistics don't lie. I recall reading during the 'days of horror' that 80% of spouses regret divorcing at some point. I also read that if a couple sticks it out during the tough times (if they do the work), they can salvage the marriage. Don't stay in an abusive relationship tho'.

One of the first posts I got here almost 8 years ago was 'this is going to take a long time'. Well, perhaps it did. But that ship sailed.

Wishing all of you strength and the courage to know what works....and what doesn't. FIB
