In the dream I turned to him and said, "How am I gonna fix this????" It was time to go.

Not the money, we were actually better off because we weren't paying for HIS lifestyle, but he was an abusive SOB and I swear, we are still recovering from the trauma (I left him almost 10 years ago). It is harder for a woman who has been in an abusive ugly relationship to find a mate who can overcome their distress at the thought of being buried again, but my mom did it. One day, out of the blue. The old saw "forgive and forget" is true, but the words are out of order. It is hard to forgive when you can't forget. But, let go of the idea that you have to forgive (yourself, him, whoever) and voila, one day you have forgotten enough that you can move on. Interestingly enough, it took me almost as long to get over the marriage as we were married. Weird, huh? Don't let him steal love from you too ... the world is full of people with a lot to give. Then again ... did you hear the one about why men are like parking spaces? All the good ones are taken and the rest are handicapped. ;o) Signed (a la Dear Abby), Someone who's been there too.

It took a while to figure out that no one could see me any more (yes, like in 6th Sense). Then I went to my daughter and asked her if she wanted to be dead with me, and she said yes, and so I drove us into a cement wall. I hung on to her saying yes in that dream for quite a while. Now she doesn't really want to see her dad. I had a nghtmare,that I had been murdered and didn’t know I was dead.

Although it hurt, I have to say he did me a favor by cheating with that woman. Now she can deal with his crap. I just got divorced after 29 years of marriage.
