Happy Anniversary to me.....

One year ago today my ex told me she doesn't love me any more.

Today, I have another reason not to like this day.

Next year I'm staying in bed until the day is over.

I don't know why I'm back here, except that I needed to tell someone.... and didn't have anywhere else to go.

Boy, do I sound sad and lame. It's not that bad. Just a bad day. Tomorrow is a new one. Hopefully a better one. I plan on making it one.

After all, the trick is to keep breathing.

I'm sorry Woog. I know it's tough on you. We do think of you here. There are a few people who could benefit from a meeting in NY with you...

Last I spoke to him, things had not worked out. I believe the resurrection of his marriage lasted less than a year.


Yep -- lasted 6 months (until Sept. 2007) when my MLC W unexpectedly turned off like a light switch. She filed a second time and our divorce was final Sept. 2008.

Giving my ex that last chance was probably the hardest thing that I have ever done given the circumstances. It was, however, necessary -- and I believe that despite having lost everything in the end.

I did get closure though and I couldn't be any happier at this point. Only by losing everything first and starting over with a clean slate has that been possible, however.

I don't know you Woog, but I can certainly sympathize with your situation. My only advice is to be patient. One way or another things will be far better in the future. It is only a matter of time.

My brother, I am sorry I didn't see this last night. I am sorry you are feeling this way. I want to burrow in a cave for about a week--I would suggest we both 'hibernate' but then we wouldn't be alone,would we? Take care of yourself, b/c we care about you too........

So, in the past few days my ex has been in a minor fender bender and lost her job.....

Is it bad that I didn't care very much?

Perhaps it is a case of Karma..........

It is good you don't care too much. She has decided it isn't your job to care about it anymore, so she can figure it out.

I can't remember what, but I thought she had a pretty entry-level job as it is? She will have to problem solve, now won't she?

Glad to hear you again, Woog (ok, read you again, but you know what i mean!)

OK, so we don't know each other, but I really feel a connection to you anyway because my spouse is similar to yours.
