Family Forum / Marriage / Divorce / July 2006

Nearly a year after homewrecking us he pushed her down and kicked her.  The
kids were with me but she called me crying.  She was drunk - no surprise and
he lost it on her.  The cops were called and a report filed.  I cannot get a
restraining order to keep him from being around the kids becasue the kids
were not with her.  No I told you so's to her but damb I need her to get her
sh.t together.  I know she will lie about it to her parents since they have
been bankrolling her divorce from me.  I so want to tattle on her in the
hopes they will put the clamps down on that relationship.  I know she'll go
back to him.  I already see her bargaining with herself.  I don't want this
to end worse and my kids get hurt in the crossfire.  All I can do is keep a
copy of the report and if something does happen the court will adjust the
parenting schedule in my favor without a second thought.

On another note - I have casually started seeing a gal (my rebound to my
rebound).  She is the opposite extreme of the first.  Where rebound 1 was
uncomfortably gorgeous and a sex machine this one is warm hearted what you
see is what you get.  Let's say she is cuddly.  Bless her heart but the sex
(was) horrible and thinking about it gives me shudders.  At least with this
gal I set major bounderies at the get go.  I so want to fill a void from the
loss of my spouse and need to address that before it kills me and keeps
hurting others - mostly me.

And lasty, I was troubled to hear some close former friends with three small
children are divorcing.  It is heartbreaking to hear.  I am livid at these
30 something women (yes I am biased and bitter).  Those walkaway wife gals
where things just didn't turn out like the fairytale.  So sad for these
children of today's me me me society.
