OK - the relationship/marriage is over - all done, nothing more. You are perfectly fine with the idea of never seeing them again. But have you 'let go' - and how do you really know if you have ?? Can you let go of the person and still be ticked off severely that they lied or cheated or whatever it was that led to the end??? If you still have some kind of feeling at all, even just a little disappointment, are you officially NOT in the 'Let Go' or 'Moved On' ranks ???? I don't know am I ?? Barb -- I don't know either - you have dressed up in black and struck a pose - that's all I can tell you look good - you look ready for adventure |

op sometimes its hard for some op and if you are with them for years it seems weird after your divorced... but i think off all the things I did not like while we where together and then I feel ok and what they have done to me kinda makes it easy after that ...

Mystical - you are so right, there is a lot to be happy about but there is still some hurt and I think that is just going to take time. Am in the early stages of legally getting out of marriage so a long way to go yet. I love having all of the bed to myself |

sure just as soon.. .... as she remarries... and no longer has her hand in my pocket...lol.. and not in a good way..lol..no.. my ex and I.. will always have a relationship.. .... she is the mother of my children you can't let go that.... it is just life. ... you spend a lot of time with somebody you eventually grew apart.. .... it's nothing to get upset about.. .. I wish her all the happiness.. ... now if I could just keep her out of my pocket...lol Don't get how she still has her hand in your pocket, apart from alimony for the kids. But yeah.. the relationship with the other parent will diminish as your kids get older. That's what's happened with me and my ex anyways. Our kids being 24 and 21, there's hardly ever need for us to get in touch anymore. Been that way for some years now. Fine with me. We've been apart for some 15 years now, so whatever connection we used to have, even in the first few years after our divorce, has faded. Simply gone. Think that's how it goes for most. . . " I think that is how it goes for most"... I agree. For ME the emotionality letting go, was easier, than the dread of HAVING to see him again. When both my children were 18+... It was for me ,more than cutting the apron strings. It was cutting the invisible wedding band off. Oh happy day.. It was finally over. I never had that "special bond because of the childen part " & neither did he. I don't think everyone does . But people certainly expected us too. |
