Congratulations. Better days ahead for you.
How many scars have you rationalized because you loved the person who was holding the knife?

Congratulations! I remember the day my papers came in the mail, I was shocked it was finally official and over. Let the weight lift off your shoulders and breath in that fresh air! Enjoy the freedom!

Don't tell her a thing, let her find out I'm assuming through the mail or her lawyer.
Oh yeah, big time congrats...Just think, you didn't even want to post your story at first. If I remember right it took quite a bit of coaxing to get you to do so.

Congrats man. I still remember when you first posted. Sure it doesn't feel like it for you but seems like yesterday.

This isn’t what any of us signed up for. But it is the hand that we have been dealt. Thus, we must play it.

Awesome to hear Westway. And thank you for all your contributions on this board - hope it continues! You’ve set an outstanding example and your perspective benefits many.
