Just.. (Reply to this comment)

.....watched ALL ABOUT US last night which is pretty much what you just wrote, but a bit different. No one cheated on each other. (the friends all did though)
I had a friend whose husband cheated on her with many women and she really did not know. Then she married again, and eventually he drove trucks and ended up with prostitutes - she caught him after following him on a run.
She is pretty screwed up right now.
I only wish that she would have listened to me and others who tried to help her to deal with it, but at the very end of it all, she is the only one that could help herself.
Thanks for taking the time to be such an open book with everyone. It is not easy to do that, and I appreciate you taking that chance.
Marriage is a lot of work. TO make it seem fresh, you have to work at it on both sides. So often one side just closes down or runs somewhere else.
I know it sounds trite, but here is a {{HUG}}, from a colleague in the field of suffering- I know what suffering is all about....

Great job! (Reply to this comment)

I learned the hard way that you don't assume that a verbal agreement (I'll pay you ex amount in child support; let's save money and keep it out of court) is going to be kept. I did not receive child support for three months (had to get a court date) because I trusted his word.
There are also great groups out there, Divorce Anonymous, or for people with children, Parents without Partners so you can get together with people who can relate.
Things do get better, but it is a rough time for everyone.
Thanks for an excellent editorial.

Its not often... (Reply to this comment)
by copernicus
that I leave a comment, but I have been advised by someone in the know that people like them. I thought I'd leave one here because your review is not of a topic I read often, and it was particularly affecting and well-spoken. I can hardly imagine what its like to go through one, and hope that I never have to. But thanks for the insight, and well written :)
