We've been in counseling for a year...after a 32 year "fighting" marriage. On the ride home from the last session, in which she was reamed by the (female) counselor, she says "I'm not going back again." I come home one evening about two weeks later, and she tells me she's leaving, and I'm not gonna stop her. She's moving to another state. Truck pulls up two days later and loads everything she wants, which really ain't much.

The following week I get the papers from her lawyer, so I hire a lawyer. She finds out and calls me and says "So...you want this to be nasty eh?" I reminded her that she had hired a lawyer first.

We split everything 50-50, including the retirement funds. I have custody of the kids.

Met the most wonderful woman in the world, got married. Haven't had an argument in over two years...not one. Blended family all loves each other, no yelling no screaming, no fighting. God is good!

So, like the OP says...chin up! There are probably better things in store. If you look for the negative, you will find it. Go out and look for the positive!
