Hey Jan - Glad you've posted this place for people to share their successes. I'm not a success in the Reconciliation Dept, but most certainly in the "I'm gonna be just fine after divorce"
My H left 3 years ago. I tried to DB him for over 2 years. Finally, I decided that he's not the same person and I don't want him back. I am in my 4th round of mediation tommorrow and close to the finish line. Here's how its going...
I am keeping my $800,000 house and my cottage. I have the nicer car. The kids are all in my care (well, one is 22 and on his own, but we have a close relationship). He got no $ from my business. Last year I was chairperson of a major charity and raised a million dollars for my community. I continue to travel several times a year and take one or more of the kids with me 90% of the time. I am in a new relationship (5 months) with a wonderful man who treats me very well. He makes me happy. The children rarely see their father and have little or no respect for him. He still lives with maggot and they refuse to meet her and have never been to his house. I have kept all our friends who despise him for what he has done to us. Even his brothers, aunts and uncles support me emotionally and want to hit him with a 2 x 4.
Am I a success story??? I'd like to think so.
Sounds like you are too. Thanks for starting this Positive Place to Post.
