Remember me?
Hi ladies. So I googled my screen name for some odd reason and came across Maryland's post "sad for losocute". I really appreciate all your thoughts. It was nice to be remembered. I lost the link to the board and then when things started going bad I just didn't come back.
Want an update? Yes I am getting divorced. I'll have my final court date as soon as he signs the papers. He's been nickle and diming me, but that's another story in itself. Yes I had to send my babies to live with familiy. I really caught hell for it on the pets board but I knew it was best for them, and it has been. They're happy, healthy, have a big back yard and 4 kids to play with. It's more than I can offer them anymore and they deserve more than a small apartment and waiting 10 hours a day for me to come home.
What happened with my marrige? Well. Long story short, he's a chronically unemployed, drug abusing, alcoholic. I fought for my marriage for a year, and he just never cared enough. You can't help someone who doesn't want to be helped. So when things turned abusive I knew I'd had enough and I left. That was the end of Janurary. I havent looked back, and I've been okay. Pretty good actually. So anyways. That's me. What's new with you lovely ladies?

Hi there! (formerly x.starshine.x)
I hope everything is going well for you! Im proud of you for walking away when it became abusive. Dont put up with that crap girl!! I hope you decide to stick around
Hey, welcome back! I used to be under another screen name. I'm glad to hear that you are taking care of yourself. I hope things continue to get better for you!
As for us we're just getting used to life as a family with a baby. So far so good!
missed you loso & I've thought about you and how you've been.
I'm so glad to hear things are going better for you now and that you're in a happy place....I agree with everything you posted about your philosophy on the situation....you have to do what's right for you.
If he didn't want to try, so be it, but it sounds like you gave it your all. That's all you can do....it's time to make you happy ~ and he can be miserable by his lonesome....while he's missing you & wishing he hadn't been such an a-hole!!
And good for you for not putting up with any abuse once it came to that....people think it's easy to just walk away....but sometimes life is much more complicated than that. I commend you for being so strong and not looking back.
PS - for what it's worth, I think you made an awesome choice for your fur babies....now they are happy and you know they are with caring people (ie- your fam). who gives a rat's a$$ what another board said....

My Bio
Hi Loso! welcome back!
Girl this is so crazy! Jus this morning driving to work I started thinking about you and how you had to create a new facebook account because of him and I was going to seach you when I got a minute at work because I missed your updates and what not!
I am so glad that you have carried through with this (we know that you did everything that you could) and you deserve happiness and some peace in life.
I think you absolutely made the best decision with your doggies. And I think that board was rediculous to even judge you on that.
Hope that you stop by more often....we miss you!
