Praying for an easier road and that it becomes as smooth as you want it to be.
Keep encouraging your kids as well and all things will be made right in the end.
Blessings.

Sorry to hear this. I went through something similar about 18 years ago. Getting sole custody as the father was difficult, but I wouldn't have it any other way. It was worth every penny I ever spent on lawyers.
I hope you and your ex can remain civil and keep the kids first. It will be difficult, but it is what you have to do. Keep your head up and things will get easier as you get over the hurt.
What used to be is gone and what ought to be ought not to be so hard.

You may not have your marriage, and I think you're right in seeing the positives of that, SDogo. And it does sound cliche' at times when the divorce initially sets in or even when it's beginning to set in to say it takes a little time--sometimes a lot.
Just be thankful you have your kids. You can always keep a relationship with the mother of your children. And I think you'll see that there are definitely other women out there for you. I think my ex-wife is a good person, but after our daughter passed away it just couldn't work. She had an affair, then I had a couple to make up for it--one with the neighbor. We were just a lost cause. But it gets better,especially with the ladies. Dating helps a lot. I can tell you that much. It's quite a transition and it just takes time. It really does get better. The good thing is you live through it.

Glad to hear from you. Losing a woman you love can be very depressing, been there and done that (maybe not to the same extent). One thing that I have learned from all that is that there are PLENTY of women out there looking for good men. Once the right one comes around, you will wonder where she has been all your life. Be encouraged.

You guys rock, this is exactly why I came back and let my situation be known. Your support is much appreciated and the advice I have gotten in PM's is priceless.
Can't wait to get back posting more once the clouds have parted and things settle down!

You still play LoU? At least I think that was you who played after a breakup.

My advice? Date other women when you can. It makes it a lot easier. Some say don't do that. I disagree. Do it.

No that wasn't me. Someone played that to get over a break up?

Been on two dates, I'll admit the first was very akward. Just did not feel right, was not ready at all but it really taught me some stuff and the made the 2nd rather enjoyable. Your right though, I did notice a bit of relief and a sence that I would be ok, that it's not the end of the world. Just doing a little talking now while everything settles but it looks promising.
I don't know if jumping right back in is right for everyone but so far so good on this side.
