(translation - I know I'm late)<BR/><BR/>I had to comment on this. I know the sadness you are feeling. I felt it in August. Looking back I do have a storybook story on how we met and began to date, but there are no children to share it with.<BR/><BR/>The sadness is for the end of something you believed in whole-heartedly and it is warranted. I do not want my ex back but it is still sad that it ended. <BR/><BR/>Know that how you feel is valid, that it takes time to heal so that moving on is possible. Remember to keep your heart open to the many possibilites that await you.<BR/><BR/>You have more options than you can shake a stick at!KayC, The Quiet Stormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04906296213022463052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650845911079200343.post-33180630375314781202008-11-22T09:48:00.000-05:002008-11-22T09:48:00.000-05:00Beginning a new chapter in life, eh?

I stopped talking to her the day my son turned 18 and refuse to speak with her to this day and our son is 23 years old. She has injuries only she and God can repair. On Dec, 3 I will see her again on an occasion for our son, I will communicate cordially on that day only. However, on the day we did the final paperwork so many many years ago it was a sad process though it had to happen. Once the process is done you will move forward and grow. And grow well.Amentahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13876681992868014576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650845911079200343.post-84610796648544253792008-11-20T12:49:00.000-05:002008-11-20T12:49:00.000-05:00The end of a marriage is a little death on the pat...The end of a marriage is a little death on the path of our journey.

EVER. We'll NEVER be friends. Even so, I still remember getting the letter in the mail informing me that the divorce was final, and that I had to go to the records room at the court house for a copy of the decree. It was a quickie "uncontested" divorce cuz we had no child, no property, no money in common. I remember feeling sad. Not for him. Not for me. But for the death of the idea of "happy ever after". It's sad that all the dreams of happy ever after come down to a piece of paper, and that's all. Very anticlimactic.<BR/><BR/>Babydaddy on the other hand... we have a child in common and because of that it took me 6 years to extricate myself from him. And when it ended, it was also kind of sad. And very anticlimatic. And as much as I hated him throughout the custody trial, an odd thing has happened... we've made a peace. I don't know that I consider him a freind, per se, but at least he's not my sworn enemy. Which is good, cuz enmity takes an awful lot of work, and I'm kind of a lazy chick.<BR/><BR/>So I understand the sadness. But it won't last long :) And when you're free of the process of divorce you'll appreciate all over again your new freedom. <BR/><BR/>The day of your divorce make sure you play Nina Simone: "It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life for me, and I'm feeling good...."The Bear Maidenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08219416611385201896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650845911079200343.post-57119385554923760132008-11-19T23:35:00.000-05:002008-11-19T23:35:00.000-05:00I've been there twice myself.

The official signing and agreement when kids are involved as you know is one of the less significant milestones in the process.<BR/><BR/>You're bright, gifted, educated, strong and kind. You'll make it.<BR/><BR/>On the subject of "being friends" with one's ex, that can't be planned in advance. I am friends with my first wife and am godfather to her son.<BR/><BR/>I cannot abide my second ex yet we have the burden of an international joint custody arrangement. Although I never loved her, she remains a big stressor for me on many levels. She is capable of such malevolence that I hope each day that she'll find a man who will bring some sunshine into her life, but she enjoys her misery too much.<BR/><BR/>It's all a wait and see thing. My money's on you!KELSO'S NUTShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14636889771989672795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650845911079200343.post-50014598534606230272008-11-19T22:44:00.000-05:002008-11-19T22:44:00.000-05:00I am sorry to hear of your divorce.For every endin...I am sorry to hear of your divorce.<BR/><BR/>For every ending, there is a beginning.
