Divorce was finalized Friday!!! I no longer have to believe her lies. I know longer have to deal with about anything other than the kids.

 

My only focus is my kids and myself now.

 

Still don't believe I will ever remarry. The lies and other issues I have seen over 12 years, (especially over last 6 weeks) makes me think I could never trust another woman. I am just not that good of a lie detector. I would always be paranoid with anyone. Although, I am very content with not ever being married again.

 

I can go to movies when I want. Go to the gym at anytime of day. I can go to Vegas with my bros and I get no questions. I can buy tickets for me and the kids to hockey and football games. My clothes are totally my decisions again!! I am just realizing how much I changed myself during this marriage. I am really looking forward to being me again. The me that I liked. This is going to be fun.

It sounds like you've learned some lessons in your M and that is a good thing...hold onto them because one day in the future someone will wander into your life and you'll be left breathless and go 'wow'. That's when you'll be ready to marry again...maybe just live together, but at least have a long term relationship.

 

Enjoy your independence and make yourself all you want to be...enjoy the kids and show them how to be resilient and strong...enjoy crying and laughing and seeing people you haven't for a very long time. Enjoy every bit of freedom and honesty and prepare for the woman you deserve...I hope more than anything you think back to this post in 5 or 10 years with a wonderful woman beside you and chuckle...a nostalgic 'and I was never going to do this again' running through your head as you realize how lucky you are.

 

I don't know your story thoroughly, but I'm assuming from your moniker you're a Marine (can't get anything by me)...may I take a moment and thank you. I'm an American living here in England...I'm aware the sacrifices made by each country...I can only imagine the sacrifices made by every individual...thank you.

It doesn't take courage. It's the realization that I have been alive 38 years and only 12 of them was I married. I have a long life to live still, and I am looking forward to living it.

Marine One. Your next step is getting laid with no strings attached.

Wow.

Doing what your want, when you want, with whom you want, and not having to get a "hall pass".

What can I say, I'm envious.
