I got the best news in the world on Saturday when I got home from my 2 week vacation. The paperwork was in the mail, and the judge signed off on my annulment. I can legally now say that I've never been married and that I'm now newly single 
It is a bittersweet feeling - and I obviously had a mix of emotions after seeing the paperwork. I felt like crying, I felt like laughing, etc. But I've struggled with it for so long that now it's like, finally - I can rest. Really really good feeling.
Just thought I'd share... I'm sure many of you can relate
Re: Annulment granted!
My biggest "win" (as you put it) was getting the annulment versus having to file for divorce. That was important to me, due to what went down immediately before and immediately after we got married. He lied to my face about being with another girl before we got married (I believed his story), and it was only after we got back from the honeymoon did I find the evidence to prove that he was lying. It was a sad year of my life where I tried to work at forgiveness, but at the end of the day, I knew I couldn't be with a cheater. I couldn't be with someone who could lie straight to my face. I couldn't be with someone who could stand in front of God, our pastor, our friends and family, and take false vows of faithfulness and honesty and trust.
If I had known that he had cheated, and had he given me the full information from the get go, I would have never walked down the aisle. I'm thankful that the judge agreed with me
