WH and I met with my attorney and we signed the D papers. I have to say- I looked fabulous!
He read each paper twice...three times if you count last friday when he was served. He was shaking and swallowing hard. I asked him if he had anything he wanted to say. He got quiet and said he didn't think so. He teared up a little and said he promises to put DS first.
I didn't cry. We walked to our cars when we were done and he got to his first so I turned to him and he smiled. I smacked in the stomach with my folder and said bye and confidently walked away.
I didn't want this but he doesn't want me. He has the telling him she will leave her H when he has divorced me so he has that to look forward to.
I hope the next 90 days don't hurt as much as the last 6 months.

You have every right to be crying in your car
((((BillieJean))))) I know I would be. I don't think for a minute he believes you were easy to let go. You are such a sweet, dear woman who deserves more then you were getting recently. Go ahead and cry all you need to. I'll be on the train getting your boa ready and plenty of Sqeezs are waiting as well.
I can't imagine the hurt you feel, but ultimately, when the sadness clears you'll recognize how strong you are and how far you've come.

You know what? You did great. You held it together and were strong in front of him. Cry all you need to now. Just let it out.
Big hugs.

Conratulations! You win in the end and he is stuck with a tramp.
You are lucky that you were able to divorce so fast.. in my state you cant even file for divorce until you are seperated for 1 year. So I am stuck waiting for my year to end so I can get rid of the piece of shit that I am so done with.
Thumbs up to you !

You weren't so easy to let go of.
He so easily let go of his morals, beliefs, scruples, integrity, honesty, and humanity.
Honey, he couldn't keep you. You were too good for him.
He knows where he belongs, with all the other trash. He set you free.

I only hope I can carry myself with half the dignity and class that you showed. Amazing strength, well played. The smack to the stomach is priceless!

Congratulations on doing so well.
Crying in the car? I'd worry for you if you didn't. Shows you have a heart.

Thanks everyone. I have lost a little over 70 pounds since D Day and I still wear the same clothes because I don't really have the money for a new wardrobe so everytime he has seen me I have been in huge clothes. Well I decided to dress up soi went out and bought a new outfit.it was the first time he had seen me in clothes that fit so well lol.
Tulip- the funny thing about the smack to the stomach is when I turned to face him and he stepped forward- like for a hug! Not gonna happen-- he's got whore cooties!

I am so proud of you; of course you looked damn good!
Way to Go!!!
If you love something and hurt it dearly, then chose not to fix it...you never deserved it in the first place.

Thanks again everyone ((hugs))
When we were sitting in the attorneys office, I asked WH if he had anything to say. A few minutes later he said "I promise to always take care of DS and put him first" I said "I'm glad"
When I got home I sent WH a text asking him if he was going to get DS from daycare today. He hadn't seen him in 4 days. He responded "no not today"
So I guess what he really meant to say was " I promise to always put DS first... starting tomorrow, cuz it's a good day for golf"
