CP: Divorce
Re: CP: Divorce
I just don't really understand anyone "judging" this situation. You tried to make it work -you didn't just wake up one day and kick your ex to the curb. You appear to have taken rational steps in saving the relationship, your ex continued to be a douche - that isn't a happy environment for ANY child to grow up in. As a product of two morons that "stayed together for the kids" I give your decision two thumbs up. Your son will thank you later.
Oh people generally don't know jack about the situation, and don't care to (not that it's any of their f'in business anyhow). They just decide I suck because it's easier to sit back and be smug. I'm pretty sure you couldn't possibly pay me enough to trade lives with this person.
Obviously, I got a divorce. Like Wendy, I get all kinds of judgment from everyone, including family. Two thanksgivings ago, (my first thanksgiving single) I saw one of my cousins that I hadn't seen in like a year. The very first thing she said to me was, "So, how's your ex husband? I really liked him...."
Um thanks.
I have no regrets. I tried to make things work, he did something I will never be ok with. I have a clear conscience knowing that I did everything I could to try to repair a severly broken marriage.
When it comes down to it though, life is just too short to be unhappy. My life is 298345176 times more difficult than it used to be, living as a single parent, but I am so much happier. People that I hardly know tell me how much happier I look now than when I was married.
