do you think ws's think of the bad way they treated the bs and even the children? i mean my ws has been gone for about a month he is back to living w ow. (bothers me but i am dealing w it)<p>during this time we are talking about divorce and what it is we both want before the papers get drawn up. i have already spoke to a lawyer and she has some money from me and is waiting to get the rest so she can begin the paper work. ws and i agreed to split the cost. at the moment i do not have the money and he is suppose to be giving me his half so we can begin the process.<p>he wants this divorce so badly but when he went to speak to a lawyer he did one of those free consultations and really came out knowing the same info. he knew when he went in.(nothing) just wasted his time. so it was up to me to go for real and get all the info. i needed b/c i do not want him getting over on me not this time. so i did my homework thouroughly. <p>so we decided to go with my lawyer.although ws has no idea what lawyer and i talked about or what it is exactly i want(he will find out when he gets served) <p>i just wanted to know do ws think of the mess they have caused and ever feel guilty?do they ever miss the bs and home? or do they just stay happy with ow? <p>i occassionally miss him and was wondering if it is b/c i am the bs and am not seeing anyone. have no intentions to either. i am dealing w this whole divorce thing and just me and my daughter.nevermind a new man last thing on my mind. i was with ws for 10 yrs and need time to heal obviously he doesn't b/c he has been with ow for a little over ayr and is so happy (that is what he says and how he acts)<p>calls daughter when he feels like it hasn't really seen her in the last month.maybe he misses her?maybe every waking minute with ow is starting to get to him?
this wkend he called and left a message:hey what's up,just giving u a call and saying hi to ciara(our daughter) i'll try you guys again later??? we don't speak so why would he call saying that instead of just addressing message to daughter? he also called again on sunday(we weren't home)left no message but saw no. on caller id. he hasn't call here on the wkends since he left. <p>but earlier in the week emailed me at work to ask status of divorce papers. i told him i need his money to get it going. he said ok now just waiting for him to mail the money to me. <p>i am not reading into anything but i wonder do ws's miss bs? even if they are content with ow. they work together,go to lunch and home together and are together each weekend? maybe he is starting to feel suffocated? i do not call him b/c he said he wanted ow and that is what he gets
i am just trying to adjust to life w/o him and somedays it is hard. <p>in a few months we will be divorced and i know he cant wait. any reponses???
do they ever miss bs and have second thoughts about ow? (my h has too much pride if he felt that way he would never say it) he will just continue life w ow forever. besides we has so many fall outs he came back for 6 wks and said he only did it to prove a point to his family that he and i wouldn't work but he isn't even speaking to his family right now says they meddled in his a and that bothered him.<p>he also spent thanksgiving w ow family and didn't even call his family. it was also our daughther's bday on thanksgiving. he just stayed with her. no one is paying him any mind now not me or his family he wanted ow and that is what he has in his life right now. 24/7 its him and her
think he will ever miss family? pls post i would really appreciate it. <p>i don't hate him i just hate his ways and know this divorce will work out in the end for everyone.

there will always be a bond between you , you mothered his child, so there are feelings.<p>attachmants if you will....there is a "love" because you share a past too.<p>i would guess there was and perhaps IS a friendship that cant be denied unless you D gets really ugly , then that could be permanently damaged with no desire to reconcilliate.<p>they miss the old friendship, they miss the old "dream" and they regret what they see as failure even tho they have moved on, if they do<p>everyone is different<p>but yes there is a "grief" related to failing and loosing the dream you had when you took the infamous vows, you meant them then, both of you did probably and its hard to admit that you are human at times <OMG tho we all are><p>sometimes in bad times there is the belief that things can be recovered <tho rarley true> especially after betrayal and time has passed...<p>so yes virginia [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img] there is a santa claus , but no promises in human relations, and no predicting the emotions each will go thru in the "letting go" stage , it may take years
