I finally did it. If you notice, I havent been writing much over the past few months. Why is that you may ask? Well, I decided after 18 years of marriage that it was time to leave. I was torn for years about leaving because of my son. Now that he is 18 I really just wanted to make myself happy.
Im not bashing his dad, well, I will try not to...but I am really doing great now! I quit smoking and living in a new place that I love and life is great...and my son is happy for me! Go figure, all of this time I was not doing it because he told me he couldnt handle it if we split up. Now that I did it, he is really doing fine with it.
I think its amazing how reziliant kids can be and how much we as parents will stay in a marriage so they are happy. The thing is, they really arent happy. Its when you leave and they see how happy you are and they dont see or hear any arguing that make them happy as well.
