Quote: So you're going to be a miserable old maid? Who said anything about being miserable???? That would be pretty stupid as well .. to shut yourself of from a future rewarding and fulfilling relationship and/or marriage.
So maybe my marriage is over.
It's been over for 9 months . . . what's new? I'm not over. My life certainly isn't over. It's time to rise above this broken marriage and move on.
Next week he'll get a slap in the face, when he has to start paying for the girls. GOOD! I'll start having an income . . . well sort of. No where to go but up. WOW . . . I was just so scared and panicky . . I was telling myself I can't do it. But I won't be without help. . . for the next 19 years as long as I have my girls . . I'll have help. That may sound like a deciding factor . . but it really isn't. It's just a realization . . that I don't really have to do this all on my own. After next week he WILL be made to send money for clothing and diapers. Since he is making between $700 - $800 dollars a week . . I imagine I'll be getting more than the $300 a month I am getting now. Any one know where one of those handy calculator are???
Enough . . . is enough. I am done with him. I will NOT file for the D. I will not sign anything he gives me. I will make him wait. I will keep my options open. Most importantly . . . I will NOT talk to him. Not anymore.
I sure hope he finds peace and happiness. . . I sure hope I do to. I have a lot to work on. . . and yes I am scared to death . . .but damn it I will NOT let what has happened in my marriage hold me back. I know I have a lot more to push through. Momentary high on this CRAZY rollercoaster . . . and the craziness is only getting started. Next week it's the support conference. Then on the 27 it will be in depth testing on Kiya . . I'm scared of going through that alone *as in without him* . . . . but . . . there is nothing I change about it.
The ball is in his court . . . it has been. I think he's dropped it . . . but damn it . . I'm not doing the work anymore. I'm walking alone from here out.
