Official today, I am finally done.

My marriage is no more.

I guess that means I "survived" infidelity.

Wow, that sucked. (And I got off relatively easy, apparently.) I am so ready to move on with life.

Anyway, let the party commence!!!!

Sorry you went through this. Glad you can embark on a productive new path out of infidelity.

I truly didn't realize what a blessing it could be to be divorced until now.

The sense of relief and peace is amazing, I didn't actually realize I needed this as much as I did until it actually happened.

I am a lucky man. Its just me and my daughter from her on out, my life feels boundless and free.

For all of you struggling through this- there is a true light at the end of the tunnel. I have struggled and bled and wept, but it's all been worth it.

I will be forever a changed man for the better for all of this.

What a crazy ride. I think I can take away some good things from the whole thing, and avoid being a toxic bitter old man, but I think I'd even enjoy being the old bitter man at this point. Better than a life of confusing paradoxes and hypocrisy.

I was raised to be the man that accepted that, but I narrowly escaped that fate.

I count myself lucky that I woke up just in time.

My best wishes for all of you going through this. I hope you find what you are looking for.

99 problems, and she isn’t one of them!

Couldn’t resist!

I was young and dumb and stayed with a cheater.

Good for you and your daughter to have extracted yourselves from that world.

I know the liberating feeling it is.

I felt like my sons and I were involuntarily thrown onto the stage of some horrific Jerry Springer Shit-Show episode.

When my divorce was final, we were free.

It has nothing to do with you.

Filed for and proceeded with divorce.
