Has anyone heard from tigersi?
I noticed she hasn't posted in a while and I am a bit worried about her and the kids.
I am hoping that she has changed her SN (I noticed a few people have done that lately...I had to a few months ago thanks to the nest messing up my account when then did those updates).
Re: Has anyone heard from tigersi?
Have I told you guys lately how much I really do appreciate you?! Well, it's long overdue then!
I am still here, kind of lurking around. Nothing really to report on my end. H has been his usual "delightful" self. His outbursts have been better, but the manipulation in other areas is the same or worse (or maybe I'm just seeing what they really are). I'm moving forward with my plans to leave. I hit a bit of a snag with some of the paperwork I need to have straightened out, but I've talked to a few really great lawyers, and I think I have picked the one I want to represent me, I just have one more that I want to talk to before I finalize that decision.
I got a snapshot of what life would be like if I stayed when we went over to the IL's house for Easter yesterday, and it's certainly NOT something I'm interested in. MIL has threatened to leave at least a half a dozen times since H and I started dating, and she brought it up again yesterday. FIL's response was "Oh well, *** happens." and she laughed it off! Seriously?? I was embarassed FOR her! But then it hit me that she has threatened so many times, that he doesn't take it seriously anymore and the threat has lost its power to encourage change, real or otherwise.
There are no more threats in my future, just action. That's the only way to make my situation better. Leaving for good is my only way out and that's what I'm going to do, for myself and my son.
Today is H's birthday. His sense of entitlement is especially acute today. I'm sure it's going to be a lovely evening. I didn't even get him a card, and I'm not going to.
I'm sorry for being such a stranger, I'll try to post updates more often. It's just been crazy at work and we don't have internet at the house. Everyonce in a while I can pop in on my blackberry, but for the most part, I have to be either at work or at the library.
I didn't see a point in getting the internet set up since I'm not planning on staying that long.
