I'm glad you're both happy. However... the whole concept makes me quite sad.

Party pooper :nyah:
For what its worth to alleviate the sadness TGG, we had a good run and got two beautiful children out of deal. We were married young, 2 months after our 20th birthdays, and over the years we grew up into completely different people then we were. The individuals we grew into were no longer compatible as a functioning and happy couple and we actually get along a lot better now then we ever have. I'd go so far as to say we are each others best friend now, able to talk to each other about things that we can't talk to anyone else about.

Bah. Yes, that's right... I said 'bah'.

Party poopin' all over the place.

(glad that you're both happy, though)

Congratulations, with no disclaimers. I have a lot of respect for anyone who can change a relationship that doesn't work into one that does. Being able to stay friends with someone when you discover that you can't be a couple takes a lot of maturity and good humor (and that's coming from someone who hasn't quite pulled it off).

I think they should have been beaten and taped together on a rock till they could learn to sing ABBA tunes word for word. That would have fixed things.

I agree. This thread makes me want a drink. Of course, most things make me want a drink.

I've never been divorced, but I've been pretty fucking close to it. If you're going to do it, it's better for everyone involved if it can be amicable. I'm pretty sure you guys know that already, though..

This should be a poster somewhere. I was pretty close to being married, as opposed to being divorced. I'm somewhat glad I didn't go that route as things went down in flames right before we almost made that move. :kewl:

I'll drink to that!

oh we had our moments where is was anything BUT amicable. but one day, we just put our differences aside and started talking to each other like human beings instead of trying to hurt each other. we really matured during the time we've spent apart. we agreed where the faults were and the various moments where the breakdowns occured and even spoke several times that if only we were able to do this or do that we probably would have made it through the things that seperated us.

we still talk about it to this day despite both of us moving on now and her having a fiancee because there's no denying that we loved each other and as such we both are going to wonder how things could have turned out for us had we been able to makes the changes we needed to make had we known about them at the time. chalk it all up to lessons learned though and knock back another bottle of Jack.

There's no such thing as a non messy divorce. The implosion of a relationship is sad no matter what. Glad you're happy, Dark. But comin' from a broken family I still live with the repercussions to this day. The parents may be happier...but the things that will be said and done between now and the time your kids are old enough to understand what happened is what ends up fuckin' everything up. No offense to you or your ex, Dark....Christ now who's the party pooper? I'll go sit down now. :laugh:

I echo that. I'm glad you're happy, but it's always sad (to me anyway) to see yet another marriage bite the dust.

But you can be happy again, because the dissolution of the first marriage can create two even better marriages!

No one ever said that coming from a broken home was good for kids. But it still beats living in one.

He's got enough problems with his faucet leaking without his shitter doing the same.

I hear ya on the concerns for the kids, my parents divorced when i was about 2 or 3 and i swore to myself the entire time growing up that my kids wouldn't have to live the life i did... well i failed on that as much as i may have tried so now all i can do is make sure the ex and i get along better then my parents did who wouldnt even speak to each other. that much at least i'm succeeding with. :)
