Just feeling sorry for myself. It would have been 18 years of marriage today, instead it will be one year of divorce in another few months.<P>I've moved along with my life, but that pain is still there. Lingering just beyond the focus. And the funny thing is that my X is now actually taking a look at the things he did and spouting phrases about knowing how much he failed in the past at being a husband and father. Of course I think this has something to do with my dating.....<P>Type at y'all later.

Thanks Lisa<P>Today was better. A special friend [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com] brought me flowers. <P>But.....what happens with the X? He's calling me every day and I just keep telling him that he's got other priorities to work on. Right now I just want him to work on being a better Dad to our boys. I know he'll hit the frustration level (once again) with me and be right back where he started--missing his girlfriend. I don't know what's up with that situation and I don't want to know. The dang feelings are still there because we know each other so well. Boy, he really knows how to still push the buttons...<P>

I had to reply to your post, because i've been thinking about the very same thing. On June 11 we would of been married 18 years too, have been divorced for 5 months, still very hard. I still find myself thinking about him every day. Does this ever go away? He doesn't make it easy either by calling and leaving messages that he was thinking of me. I don't even feel divorced, i feel like he is still my husband.

(((((((((((Claire)))))))))))))<P>I've been away a few days, sorry I missed your thread, if you go back a few pages, you'll find my reasoning why.<P>It just never ends does it? I still have good and bad days. My ex still has his "what if's", and in the end, its still a huge painful event, the affairs, the divorce, all of it.<P>Sometime's I wish it would just all go away, but with kids involved, its very hard.<P>Just wanted to say hi and let you know that I'm hear , feel free to email me, Hugs, Dana
