Awww .... that's sweet of you to say 🙂

I have already begun. The first thing that absolutely has to happen is a big fire ... we will gather anything at all that we can that is even remotely related to your ex and burn it!

Then toast to the Divorce

Then, play music that you love and drink Moscato

Then more toasts

Then Drink

Then .................................

Next ... I am going to apply for the Correctional Guard posting that just came up and get that job!
Travelling abroad sounds pretty darn good, and not clich? at all, but I did that last year when I went to visit Moony in CA as a sort of pre-Divorce celebration.

It's so crazy that I am 47 years old and building my career. On the other hand, I did spend all of the last 12 years with my daughter. My time with her has been a gift and for that I can thank the Cappy ex.

yes to the fire! I'm also thinking a dart board with his face on it, toilet paper with his face on it, pin the ass on the donkey (a donkey with his face on its ass), a pinata with his face on it.....Oh, we can add the ex friend who has been fucking him for years to it, too.

Why Thankyou Mr.F! ... for bringing that to my attention ... I will be sure to avoid the Doc as/usual. Where's my Willie Nelson song?

Cheers to you too TrueScorp! I wish you Good Luck in your Divorce and hope that it goes as smoothly as possible for you 🙂

Got It Gobshite! "Just say no" campaign! ... (I do have an offer of marriage atm)

IS ... WooHoo! no kidding right? I have been singin' that in my mind for days. Five years was a helluva long time and it passed, just like that. Scary.

people make victories out of losses it seems.

what an ironic sort of celebration.




I think that it is more making the best out of a bad situation. It is what it is and why not embrace it on the positive side and be thankful that it is finally complete.

I think you are 100% right. The pain, confusion, hurt, betrayal ... all those terrible feelings have been worked through and resolved. I accept the outcome and am happy about my Divorce because it was the last step of closure for me.

In my opinion, I think most people's marriage fails because, though they may think, otherwise, the couple didn't really know and understand the deepest, truest meaning and value of it, BEFORE they got
married.

You see, marriage is not about living happily ever after. Even the happiest couples have their ups and downs. It's hard work and only the strongest of souls can weather a lifelong marriage.
Some keys to a successful marriage is to be realistic, forgiving, extremely patient, and master the art of compromise. These are traits that need to instilled when a child is young, so that when they
are grown, life's realities will be a bit easier to bear. Instead, society has a way of promoting the princess....

I've said it elsewhere (I forget now), in one of these threads.

I think people ought to teach their kids to wait before thinking about sex and marriage until after they have reached 35-40 years of age. Maybe even longer, in this day and age.

The reason for this, is primarily to spare them a world of grief.
Of course, kids don't listen. So, they have to be appropriately taught responsibility when they are young. When time comes to explain the birds and the bees, that's the same time, it has to be explained why patience, self-control, getting along with others, thus self-respect, among other like things, are very important.

I know many will get a divorce and move on to new relationships. Sometimes, they can be many relationships. I've spared myself a lot of grief not going down that path, and learned a LOT by doing so. Instead, I simply diverted such interests in more productive directions. Seen a lot, learned a lot. Out of this, I found that I can be alone, but not lonely and be at peace.
