Divorce thread, support, fun, and pain

[weak_link]

Moved out in October, ex had been pushing me to get out for a year. I didn't want to give up on the dream that somehow things would turn around. Everyone but me knew it wouldn't so I stayed. Now I'm out, I should have done it a year ago.

Yesterday when I went to pick up my amazing 3 y/o daughter from the ex I was looking at all the kids out playing, the families out chatting before dinner and I realized how much I miss my old neighborhood. Yes, the ex has the house. I was feeling pretty down about the whole thing. Then I got home and started to do the dishes at my new place. I realized how much I hate the way my ex-wife loads a dishwasher. Took a step back while realizing this and figured these days I'll take small victories where and when I can.

Having a hard day? Post in here, maybe we can cheer you up.
