PUT ANOTHER FOOT IN MY MOUTH Mood
Tuesday, June 10, 2008

I wrote my ex another e-mail.  It is a long story.  When I got back to work last night, the general manager at the hotel I work at was fired that morning and I guess it kinda set me off a little.  I was like, "I know it probably won't mean much, but I am deeply sorry.  I guess I was having a really bad morning when I typed this.  I let my feelings get the best of me and I hurt you with everything I said.  I e-mailed my psychologist the e-mails.  I am hoping he can give me some pointers and tips.  I go through my ups and downs.  When I went into the hospital, I thought the separation was a temporary thing and that I would work on me and their might be a chance at us.  My last days in the hospital and our conversations, I realized it was actually over.  I was doing good.  While I was at my parents, I took a step backwards.  My parents would say something and I would come to your defense.  Sorry, but I miss the old times.  I guess my e-mails were a way at lashing out.  I know they hurt you and I am sorry.  I never meant to harm you in anyway.  I won't e-mail you anymore, unless it is about the boys, I promise.  I hope eventually you can forgive me and we can be friends.  I really do want the best for you.  I really mean it."  I was in the wrong frame of mind.  I should wonderfully step back, relax, give her her space, and not bother her.  I was just feeling lost and confused.  I hope she can forgive me eventually.  I know that what I said will probably not be forgotten.  Although we are separated and soon-to-be divorced, she really is a very special woman that I will never forget or be able to replace.

    I am trying, but I am having a hard time letting go of the past. I guess I don't want to accept it is over.

    your going to have to accept it soon or the bitterness of both sides is going to rub off on your children and they are going to be the ones who end up paying the emotional price for this divorce ..you and your ex wife can pay the finacial price..but the children pay the emotional price in the long run...sigh...perhaps it is time to think of that now..think of the kids for a change..sigh
    sorry to be so blunt hon..but it is time to put your kids needs both physical and emotional first..and not yours..sigh

    hugs

    Hi there Rob, I think Heather above said it all - & I agree with her - though I recognise your pain over this period: it is so intense, but you HAVE GT to let go! You don't want to jeapidise your relationship with your kids. Best regards JaneD.
