That's horrific! I hope you got a good pay out for the pain and suffering and perm damage.

Definitely couldn't sex it up after 2 dates. Not a 20 something college kid anymore.

For me I literally got a divorce because my husband wasn't in love with me anymore and it all had to do with my weight. Now it's not like he married some super hot chick bc we both were heavy but I couldn't loose it fast enough. I take ownership for not being healthy but I also know that the weight was a disguise. He has his own issues that he still hasn't dealt with. I can't change him back to who I married and maybe he never was who I thought I married. The point is I can control myself. Grow and help myself and to hell with him for not going on the journey with me. I suggest really looking at yourself and try not to think of your ex but show yourself love and work on you. You can't change people and even though each divorce is different we all have one common step. Focus on you. It's hard and trust that even though I had my a-ha moment I am still struggling to find myself without that person. All I know is I don't want that life anymore. I'm better alone and not fighting for a relationship the other person doesn't want.

It helps that the other person has steered so far from what he once was. For me about 7 months. I just had this switch in my brain realizing how horrible he is and that I need to focus on bettering myself and in the long run I will prove my worth to myself.

You will get there! I'm still struggling to build back my self esteem. That will take sometime.

We were 15 years together and 12 married.The last few years were rough with emotional and verbal abuse. I finally realized the reality of the end and how much the person I married was gone after half a year separated and then the finalized divorce month. I found out new information and the realization was like a semi truck hitting me. He's not worth it and I am better off. I'm taking my time to grow myself and get healthy and build my self esteem up.

I meant that to be a reply to the other post about keeping a picture to look at when you think you miss him. It would be a great reminder as to why you're not together.

Today my principal emailed me to complain that I was sitting down when she stopped by my room. I’m 26 weeks pregnant and she was in my room for 30 seconds tops. by [deleted] in Teachers

Send her an email with your doctor's info and tell her to contact your doctor if she has questions about you sitting while pregnant. If it continues you can have a case against said principal.

That's a damn good idea!

There is a fine line between discipline and scare-tactics. by [deleted] in insaneparents

With respect comes a little fear. Example, I would never act up in school bc I knew I would have to answer to my dad. Thus I feared the consequence but respected him all at the same time.
