OK, it's been a long stretch.  I'm passed the 1-yr mark on DS.  Haven't been on much in the last 6 months or more as I really feel as though this site is ideally suited for those in a certain 'phase' of recovery as it were and I've really gotten my life back on track & in order so that's cool...Divorced? Not yet (!) officially anyways....I moved out 2(!) years ago last month.  We're expecting a court date for an uncontested divorce in June sometime.  6/1/08 is when child support/alimony officially start.

The kiddos are all doing great both socially & intellectually.  My stbx is still as passive-aggressive as ever.  I know she'll take her bitterness to the grave.  I, however, have moved on and this divorce is 98% a business transaction at this point.  To all those folks in emotional pain an turmoil, I can tell you that the simple passage of time WILL make you feel better.  That's a fact.  It lets one separate emotion & actuality/reality.  You may not picture being able to ever do that (I certainly didn't) but you will.

I have a wonderful GF....yes, the 'other woman' is still very much a part of my life; she's now finally met the kiddos on several occasions (dinners, parks, museums, etc.) and they all like her.

Dunno who'll be reading this now or who's even left over from a year or more ago but I'm doin' well! :)
Best to all-

Warren (dvmdoc)

    Hey Warren, glad to hear all is well. It has been a long time, glad the end is near. I am proud of you the way you handled things in your divorce. ALthough I will never agree with the OW I still support you for being a super dad and dealing with your divorce in a mature manner.

    Let me see if I get this straight - you're getting a divorce because you had the "other woman"? Is that right?
