Any Jolene updates?

I don't think she's been around here a while...anyone heard from her? I know she was early in the divorce process, but not sure if anyone has seen any updates from her on WC either.

Just thinking of her!

  • She posted a BU on WC today, but it was a recipe...haven't seen any updates on her personally.
  • Hi! I'm here Smile

    As for a personal update, things are going well. Still separated & happier than ever. STBXH came over about 2 weeks ago and begged me to reconsider. He said he would do anything, for however long it takes to make things right. I told him that I remain firm on my decision to leave. I've given it since spring 2010 to try and reconcile our issues, as well as deal with what he did (DD'd because I didn't want all the detailed drama shared indefinitely). But what he has done to me over the past few years is simple un-excuseable. I cannot continue to live in that kind of marriage, much less allow my son to grow up around that behavior. I feel like I stayed in the marriage longer than I should have but eh, it's water under the bridge at this point.

    I've forgiven him for all his shortcomings and there's nothing he can to do change my mind. At this point, we remain amicable and so far, we're working well together to co-parent our son. He's making efforts to change his ways, manage his anger, and going to counseling weekly (as am I, separately). The good news is that he respects my decision and has agreed to an uncontested divorce.

  • Hi! Good to seemyou're hanging in there and most importantly happy with your decision (which clearly is for the best!) I'm sure it's not easy to keep it always amicable, but best for your son. Hang in there...and come say hi when check in when you can! I know you're busy!
