My poll was kinda tied between "follow your heart" and "do what the lawyer says" so that will be my approach. Wish me luck. Or send money. Whatever.
Well good luck to you. I hope everything goes okay, and let us know what happens if you can. {{{Hugs}}}
I'm running low on that money thing, so you're going to have to settle for luck, and being added to my signature.
Oh my, that's wonderful!(about the sig) That was not quite as meaningfully earth shattering. Things were ok at the lawyers but I had some other stupid shit come down the pipe, something my kid said, and I said ok to him... then then someone said I told Owen (kid) to say that. Which wasnt true..."pssst hey tell your dad you want to be with me" The last thing I would ever do is manipulate a 6 year old. This is difficult being out of my home, and the antaagonist is right where he wants to be. I gotta wait 10 days before I can do anything. Tomorrow I am taking a anger mangement class... they call it "relationship councelling in abusive relationships" There was a time when I could've taught the class.
I have been doing a TON of that. Also thinking of the goddess ..... In your words "Freyja ....ask her, to help you find your inner strength" and thechocofan ....I was stoned and forgot the rest of my thought :& I meant I thought the quote would be magical or something.
lol I liked that quote up there^ well I will wish you sisterly love... and the most positive of outcomes! why is this comp lagging? fuck.
It went ok, she is a lawyer with a feminist perpective, and in my case I think that's what I need. I put my husband through school, now he's graduating and is shafting me... since he is a "social worker" now he is trying to take primary control of my kids. I have to call her next week after all the paper gets pushed. I supported him through bouts of cocaine addiction, he is "sober" now but still acts like an addict.... hopefully that will be enough to prove that my care is more stable. I am at my mom and dads now an it totally sucks. sigh.
sounds like things could swing pretty heaviliy in your favour. you should be getting a nice amt of alimony on top of everything else. you'd think that if your ex is a social worker, he'd be interested in what's best for the kids, instead of what he wants i just dont get guys like that...
