Wow!
Quote From: happymom99I think that it is time that these two and many others just grow up already. Life is far to short to spend it being angry about something that you can not change.
My husband and I have recently seperated after 17 years of marriage. He had an affair and decided that he needed to move on. We have two small children and we (especially me) had a choice to make. We could be spiteful and hateful and destroy our children and ourselves in the process or we could act like adults and make the most of the situation. We decided to get along. He ramained living in the family home for a year after telling me about the new girlfriend and then moved out to a new home that they purchased that took the childrens needs into account. I remain in the family home as that is the home of our children. She is very good to our children and they love her. There is no visitation agreement as he may have our children as much as he wishes. She has even taken them out on her own. I am glad for that because they need to growup to be strong and grounded and it is our responsibility to do so. The children should be happy and content and they are not responsible for this their parents are!
So get on with your lives put an end to this chapter of your life. Take the lessons that you can learn and be happy. You only get to go around once and it is a shame to spend the time that you are given being angry and bitter and looking for revenge. I am very proud of you! You seem to be incredibly intelligent and strong. Good for you, that you have given your children the chance at some happiness. I pray you will be blessed! If only we all could rise above the emotions and think of other people's feelings........
