For everyone wondering where I have been... I left my husband on September 26th 2007. I left on an airplane while he was at work. I came home to my family for a "visit". I am now back in Kansas. It has been a very hard couple of months. I really miss my best friend in New Mexico and I plan on visiting her as soon as I can. I am finally starting to realize who I am as a person and not just a wife and half of a couple. I am much happier now. I am getting ready to go through the divorce process, he tells me he will not grant me a divorce but I know that I can get one anyway. He was dragging me down with the whole 13 year old friend thing and drugs too. When I left he moved in with the mother of the girl, three days after I left to be exact! I am staying with some great friends right now but I expect to have my own place in the next three weeks, I also have someone else in my life that is making me happy. I hope and pray to God that things are going to finally be better in my life.

Good for you princeworthy! I am happy to hear you left the situation, and it doesn't matter if he won't grant you the divorce, if you want it you'll get it. Especially since he moved in with this girls mother. That action speaks for itself. I know how hard it is to get divorced and start over, but trust me, it'll be worth it. And truly, you are "prince worthy", no woman should have to put up with the garbage you were from this man.

Thank you soccermom, the longer I am away from him the more I realize that I deserve way better. I can't believe he moved in with them after only three days, he tried everything to get me back though, even crying. I was having none of it.

It is true that when you step away from the situation for a bit, you will get a fresh perspective on things. I am glad that you did!

Good choice. The thing is that there's still the issue of the minor and him. Now it's someone elses issue/problem. Good luck again.

Thank you Grandpa Bob! I didn't want to come on here talking about this until I was absolutely sure that I was completely done with him and that situation.

I had been wondering where you were!
From what I had heard about your relationship before, I had wondered a lot about it. I'm glad to hear that you are looking towards the future and have someone in your life now who is making you happy. I know divorce is a hard thing, but I'm excited for you too.

Good for you. But please remember to take your time, and get happy with yourself before you get into another relationship. You need to be you for a while. I haven't read any of your other postings, but I assume you had some by this one. Isn't it good to be back around family. Once you get your own place you will feel even better. God bless and take time to love your self first.

Thank you for you kind words. You don't even know how good it was to see my family again. I finally met my nephew who was born this year in January, it was love at first sight! He is the love of my life right now :)

You must have gone through a lot and still has to go through a lot. But what matters most in life is our happiness and freedom and if you don'y have that, its not worth staying alive. Nice to hear that you are happy with what you are doing, things will become better and all that matter is time so wish you good luck in life and hope you get settled soon with whatever you want.

I won't lie. I was like now I wonder if this is my friend who had the problems because I only saw the heading. Just couldn't remember your name, but was glad when I saw you there. Well,good for you and carry on dear friend. Carry on. I am not down for a marriage to hit the fan, but everyone deserves happiness and that wasn't in your horizon then. Peace.

I am so glad to know that you are ok and doing well. I know you were having a time with these issues and the 13 year old girl. All I can say is good riddance to bad rubbish! You are far too good for a "man" such as him. He will get what he pays for that is sure. Don't worry dear, things always happen for the best and I think you know that now. I think just making the leap is the hardest part. The rest you can take day by day. I am glad you made this decision for yourself. It is good to hear from you and I am excited for your new life!

Good for you! I left a 16 yr marriage , 3 yrs ago. And once I gave myself a chance, I actually came to like myself more as a person. I was on my own for a year before I met someone, we have now been together 2 1/2 years and he is wonderful. After so many years with my ex, it is still suprising there are men out there like the one I'm with now. He is great. I ended up moving 1600 miles from Texas, but I'm with a wonderful man, I'm now working my dream job, and life is great. It sounds like you are well on your way to having the better life you are wanting, and deserve.

Good for you!!!
I am so glad you made that step and really happy about it!
You're are right too - you can still get the divorce if you want it. It will just take a little longer than normal.
THREE days after you left!!! WOW!!!
I'm so glad you got yourself out of that situation.

I don't think I have read any of your past stories about your marrage. I have been through a divorce before and I know how hard this can be. I don't know you but I feel so proud of you. I only want to say to you. If you have high standards for yourself then you will attract a man that has high standards too. I hope and pray for you that your new life will bring you all the good things in life that God wants you to have. The greatest gift being Love!

Congrats! I myself left my husband when I was 2 months pregnant on my 2nd baby. First I thought It is wrong to leave a husband but realize that I did it right. He is jobless and dependent on the dole outs from my brother in laws. Until now he didn't care how we are doing with our life. I know it is hard for the kids but it is better than living together. He drinks a lot and gamble (asking money from me.) So after 9 years, my kids and I are fine. In time, you will have a better life without him and find love.

Thank you I hope I will be able to find love, I am going to leave that up to God this time. If it is meant to be then he will show me the way. I am happy for you that you got out of your bad situation and are doing well. Congratulations! I couldn't imagine doing this with children in tow or pregnant much less both. You are a very strong woman and you should be proud of yourself!
