    WOO-HOO! Good For You, Levi!

    Pay no attention to the rude comment about your 180 # joke. Those of us who can relate understood EXACTLY what you meant, and know that you didn't mean any disrepect to those who are struggling with a weight problem (DUH!) You CERTAINLY deserve to revel in your new found happiness, and I pray that you and your beloved chilidren have a sweet, happy, life.

    After reading further, I wanted you to know how much I admire your courageous decision to leave - even though it could have cost you your LIFE! I'm so sorry to hear what you had to endure. Having suffered with an abusive father, which led to the demise of my parents marriage, I know how horrifying it can be for you, and believe me, I suffer the scars of painful memories of my alcoholic father beating my mother.

    God Bless you, Dear. Here's wishing you all the love and happiness your heart can hold.
    Qita!

    Thank you.

    That's part of what inspired me. I was terrified of leaving. Petrified. At the time it seemed impossible. When I thought about my daughters, though, I knew I had to try. I wasn't going to stick around and give them the impression that this is what marriage is about, or that it's okay to tolerate that BS.

    Besides, what if I stayed and he killed me anyway? I'd rather die trying to get out.

    People refer to divorced families as 'broken homes'. The way I see it, I did what was necessary to fix it. I certainly wouldn't leave my kids with a babysitter who acted like that. So, why is it okay to stay with their dad who is abusive?

    Thanks so much.

    really, though you spent YEARs losing that fat(head).
    I spent almost 2 years riding myself of 285 pounds of ugly, ignorant fat(head).
    Go dance anyway and plffle on the anorexia comments. This is not an anorexia forum, its a WOMEN'S forum.

    Yeah, I know, I spent years trying and trying with no success, and then one day.....TA DA!


    The papers that my lawyer sent me said 'Celebrate responsibly'. :)

    I got that letter like two weeks ago. Last night his mom called, as she does on most weekends to see how the kids are doing, and I said, "So, I guess he told you the divorce is final, right?"

    She said no.

    He hasn't returned any of the kids' or my calls since then (or for a long time before that), either. Even when I tried to update him on good news about one of our kid's medical problems.

    What a dork.

    I try to stay on good terms with his parents, though. As long as they treat me with respect, I don't see why the kids should be deprived of grandparents. His parents are actually a lot nicer to me since I left him. I'm guessing it's because I have the kids.

    Congratulations to you, too, Drumminmama.

    You wanna know something rediculous? My long-distance boyfriend is talking about marriage. Ummmm...yeah that's on the top of my list of things to do! I don't think so. I have been telling him for a long time that I probably won't ever get legally bound to anyone again. But to even bring it up when I'm still celebrating my freedom...silly.:p

    let's see, i was divorced on a thursday and remarried (out of state) by the following wednesday.
    Granted, I'd already been living with my sweetie (it'll be 10 years next June) for a year. One of the cases where you KNOW this is the right move. And I was in process of the divorce when we met, if anyone is wondering.

    Well, that is different. You felt like it was the right thing to do. I feel like my BF needs to just chill. For maybe ten years. :H I don't see how we would even benefit from being married.

    What a scam. It cost us about $68, if I remember right, for our marriage license, and it cost me something like $3,000.00 to get divorced. WTF? That's not including the debts he ran up in my name.

    My mom and my friends think I need to get a man right this minute. They know about the long distance BF. They like him. But they think I need a man in my house right this minute. Silly. Especially since the men in their lives are such pains in the butt.

    I like having my own space.

    Hi Levi,

    Good luck to you and yours. Sounds like you have been divorced for a long time, and just waiting for the legal part of it. I too divorced a while ago and since re-married. I also have a daughter to look after and set an example for at the time , now I have two{daughters}. Its good you keep in touch with his parents to maintain a civil relationship for all.
    Go dance, party, and celebrate,Good luck with your BF too.Maybe it won't be long distance anymore now that you are free. At the time of my divorce my girlfrind sent me a congrats!! card and my ex a sympothy card for his loss.hahahah we all LOL about it today.
    good luck,
    U

    I like the card idea. That's hilarious. If it looked like a card my ex would open it, too, hoping to find $.

    Are you for real?

    I'll share my secret with you. I got divorced. If you're not already married to somebody that treats you like shit, though, then I wouldn't recommend this weight-loss program. :rolleyes:
