Regrets from leaving?

AlexandraL's picture

Just wondering if anyone had regrets when they've left a relationship. I've only left a few, and no regrets, well, except for some nostalgia from my divorce d/t growing up with my ex and having my kids. Still, I know we're not a great match.

It's hard to reconcile loving someone and not being able to have a life with them...

DH is clueless... ugh.

DH and I went out and did some Christmas shopping today. While we were out he brings up ss22. I don't remember how, but I remember thinking, "What does this have to do with anything? Why are we ALWAYS talking about YOUR kids?" He proceeds to tell me that ss22's car is parked at sd20's apartment. I asked him what's wrong with it... the kid has no gas. I said, "Well, I guess he will figure it out." DH says, "He has no job." I said, "Well, yeah, what's new? If he wanted gas, he'd figure out how to get it.

FSD said what?

That's what I said to FDH. First, let me say, we currently do not live together as another room is being added and I have told FDH, that even after it was finished, until he gets control of his house, I would not be moving in, we were supposed to move in in December. FSD said I wouldn't talk to her on Thanksgiving day or yesterday. That she tried and I wouldn't talk to her. I told FDH really? Because I was sitting there talking with your niece and her boyfriend and she never came over to the table. If you don't believe me, why don't you call your niece and ask her.

I found these three posts very interesting and thought provoking. Before being in this relationship and becoming a SM, I never thought much about these issues other than to give Barbie the BOOT Smile

SO, tough week, with FSD around all week, lots of hectic evenings. SO of course BM still in hospital and changed plans so the one Thanksgiving Day we would be just him and his family got changed for her to be with us. THat's fine-just always last minute change around-I knew it.
I had a wonderful time at his family's..they are awesome people, made me feel SO welcome and comfortable. Was really exceptional. At least I know I"m getting into a family who's IN-laws adore me and respect me and would always have my back.

BM1 and house loan....

I used to be married. I owened a house with my ExH...we divorced and it took him about 3 years to get the house shit together (getting my name off the loan, etc)...it was a long, long process. During part of that time, I was with my now DH. He assisted me in getting my lazy exH moving with the house crap. Finally, a year or so ago, it was taken care of..
Fast Forward...

Little sneaky nasty violent manipulating brat!...(a vent)

Okay, so I am seething right now and need to vent! Since it is vacation and H is home to be with the skids in the morning, I have been able to sleep in a bit which is fantastic and much needed. One of my best friends is visiting us from out of state and we have been staying up late watching Ghost Adventures and basically having the adult version of a slumber party. My sister and her boyfriend have been hanging with us and it's been really fun. BUT, yesterday morning, SS6 woke up early and my BFF, who is sleeping on the couch while we have the skids, was woken up by him.

I looked like an A** but felt oh so good doing it.

SKids have been little butts since BM took DH to court. Where it all started. My DH was the one who could say where the kids lived all that stuff. Well during the summer BM didn't like that DH could do that anymore so during her time with kids got them all ready for court scared the kids and afraid to come to their dads house. BM was telling the girls to get ready to go talk to the judge and tell him you want to live with me not your dad, so my DH didn't want the girls to have to go though all that BS so he gave in.

WTF! Does he NEVER learn?

Loghead just bought 2 pigs! After the whole cow incident, he goes and buys pigs?! The man is stupid!

About an hour ago, a few of us are sitting around the table, eating left overs. Loghead is reading the weekly paper, and sees an ad that catches his eye- doesn't say anything to me, just calls the number. Before I know it, I hear him say, "Yea, I'm interested in buying 2 of those pigs you advertised in the paper."

I froze. Princess took a sharp breath in, and Gibby said he was leaving the room. Smart kids.
