I'm doing 2 things
After almost 2 years of a painful separation, my 22 year marriage ended on August 9th, 2006. Later that month I went on my first non-married date in a long time. Gosh, was that awkward…and a bit scary too! lol
Since that time I have dated numerous women but never found anyone with whom a third date sounded even remotely appealing. So, I have thrown myself back into my career and actually, I am content and quite happy.
As far as the former wife is concerned, she has moved on quite well and has been in deep, long-term relationship with the same man for almost two years. The only thing that has kept them from marriage is the fact that my youngest son and his youngest son constantly fight.
Regarding my relationship with my former wife, well, I keep things strictly business with her despite her attempts at “let’s be good friends”. Honestly, I want very little to do with her. I have spent the past year earnestly striving to forgive her and myself for the loss of the marriage, as I believe that the negative thoughts and emotions are robbing me of some additional peace and happiness in my life. That being said, I have learned that that is not an easy task. But I am committed to keep striving.
