What is the BEST part of divorce to you.

[Kenny]

Financial Woos:

What does that mean? I am hoping that I am taking your reply out of context.

Many here, including "myself," have given our hearts and souls to our families, putting "them", "they" and the applicable "you" far in front of themselves. Often, it is only after many of us were totally screwed by the divorce legal system, that we finally chose to put some of our interests first.

I gave everything to my family as well. Got screwed, recovered and am now in a wonderful relationship with a new partner that includes the full and permanent custody of my children. And now, as I did before, I put "me", "myself" and "I" last to the betterment of my new blended family.

Again, I hope I just misinterpreted your post.

Thanks.

Financial Woos, even people in committed relationships need to consider the me, myself and I. If they aren't happy the first place to look is yourself, not the other person.

It is very possible to be in a good relationship without neglecting yourself.

Definitely a clean house! It is just the way I left it. Financial decisions. No worries about coming home to find that he made another big purchase with no discussion with me. Eating what I want when I want. Having my dog allowed all over the house!!!!!!

Just being plain happy with no added stress.
Being the person you truly are instead of
A person you are not dictated by the environment
You once lived. Your whole demeanor changes
for the better. No more negativity. A breath
Of fresh air. I can go on and on!

Oh I love this post.

ok where to start ....

-Clean House

-No kitchen full of beer cans and dirty dishes

-No overbearing mother in law popping up unexpected 4 times a week

-Don;t have someone contantly bringing me down

-No stressing about where he is and why he didn't come home

OH there is soooooo much more

Clean house !!! no peeing on the toilet seat

Ability to move ahead when I want

No more having to hear "I put a load in the washer for you" " I put a load in the dryer for you"....oh thank you ..grrrrrrrrr. I worked all day for 8 hours in the hospital and he puts a load in the washer "for me" yahh ok buddy.

No more having to see him always looking like a bum...and dressing like one.

No more having him not speak to me for ages if we got into an argument

No more having to ask him "lets talk about it" and he replies there's nothing
to talk about...even worse pretending he didn't hear me and continues to watch TV

No more Mother-in-Law saying poor "Andy" (he's an only child), meanwhile she has beauitiful grandchildren she doesn't give a rats ass about. If he's mad at the kids...so is she!!

No mre listening to him "bitch" if I want the grandchildren to spend the night.

OMG!!! LIFE IS SOOOOOOOO GOOD ...HUGS TO EVERYONE !!!!

For me its one word. FREEDOM!!
I am now in control of my life, instead of my exhusband controlling everything I do

For me now the best part of divorce is not being called nasty names or pushed and shoved or slapped.
