Reply #47: I was married for 13 years. [View All]

[Pepperbelly]

When we decided to put asunder the bonds of matrimony, it sucked even though we were arguing constantly and life was totally miserable. It sucked good for a year or two.

Then things planed out.

Of course, I do not know your wishes in the matter, that is if you want to reconcile or disolve the relationship or just wait and see, but believe me on this --it gets better if the split is permanent. I mean ... it is always hard but it is certainly not insurmountable.

I was very quick to want to re-marry within a year or so of my divorce but did not. And now, truthfully, I am very content, satisfied, and pleased with my lot. Two of my grown kiddos still live with me and overall, we are mainly friends and room-mates.

Be brave. Keep your chin up. And remember, even if things seem pretty bad, it WILL get better. Peace, happiness, and prosperity to you in the new year.
