Amazing...I'm going through my second divorce and as of this writing...frantically packing the last of 8 years worth of stuff before the end of this week. (got about 1/4 more to do???)

my STBXH, Mr. T, took off the rest of this week to help me pack and get the kids out of school etc.. etc... it's all amicable and I hope it stays that way. We've been through H-E-double hockey sticks and back together....strange that we both just decided that it "just didn't work".

I think even though we've recovered from D-day and the OC and ex-OW's antic's and all...we've never recovered intimacy or tried to build on a new foundation. In short, I've tried and tried for five years and he just gave up.

It's a sad thing. I've never expected to be divorced twice in my lifetime. I loved being a wife, a mother, being married. But...something just didn't work out with this one.

I hope to take and learn from this time 'round and go forth and move on to make the best possible life for me and my children. Having been divorced before, (and the first one was nasty!) having this one be so amicable is kind of disconcerting...you always wonder if the shoe will drop.

Well, thanks for letting me muse and get some anxiety out as I run around like a chicken with her head cut off to get ready to move by Sunday. I hope to be more of a contributor once I settle in my new place. We're moving out state.

I'll spend some time familarizing myself with this board and I hope to be able to contribute positively to y'all's life.

sincerely
Twiisty

I'm sorry you're going through this, but you came to the right place. The folks here have been a huge help to me as I sort through emotions and get back on my feet.

Take care of yourself!
