this morning.......I am going (hopefully)first thing monday and filing for divorce and taking him back for more money. 
I know this sounds rediculus but I still feel devistated.  I know that doesn't make sense b/c this is really what I want! I know it's silly but I can't stop crying.
I called him monday and asked him if he will contest(sp) it or not. He said "I can't believe you are calling me at with this bull--t. I'll call you back". He didn't call back til tues. about 11:30a., he knew I wouldn't be home.  Last night I called him and asked him to help Kailey with her math but that was all that was said and when they were done, they hung up and he hasn't called back.
He has moved on with other women, partying, even bought a trailer and got a dog.  But he still gets upset when I try to talk with him about a divorce. I just don't get it and honestly I've stopped trying to get it along time ago. After being seperated for over a year, I confronted him on how he treats me.........how he wants the best of both worlds. He just looked at me and said he is going thru a selfish stage in his life. The only time he would make any effort is when he thought he was loosing me for good. Now, he doesn't even make an affort really. I guess that's why I'm sort of shocked that he got upset. It's only paper work. For the most part we leave each other alone, unless it deals with our kids.
Sorry that I rambled.  Even tho I'm upset, I'm very happy that I've made the calls to get things started. Hopefully first thing monday I will be headed to town to get this taken care of.     Hugs~T

Dear sweet Tammy ,
It sounds to me like you do really know what you want to do ,Or should I say , you know what you have to do before you can have your own life back again .
AS you say HE does want the best of both worlds , he wants his cake and eat it . He says he's Going through a selfish Phase!!!!!!!!! 
He got upset ,probably because he now knows you are that much stronger and will not play his mind games any more,  and that your becoming your own person  ...
Sorry but has he ever been anything but selfish ?
This is Just my opinion Tammy and from my own experiences....
 Tammy it is so hard going through a divorce .When all the dirty laundry comes out and this and that gets said and things that hurt .CHildren are used like pawns in a game of chess.
Solicitors/lawyers have a way of making things drag on at times as well , by sending letters to and fro each others ,with the He said she said he did ,he wants and she wants ,etc etc .I think you know what I mean .......
This can make it even more painful mentally for you and him ,while the lawyers sit back and get the extra cash for doing it to you .
 
You do have your children to consider in all this Tammy as you well know .
For that reason , you do have to be seen to making some kind of effort to stay on an agreeable terms with him .
The children will soon realise whats what, and who really loves and REALLY CAres for them. and looks out for them and who is always there for them when they need a hug or tending when they have a scrape etc. they are a lot more knowing than we give them credit for sometimes..
He is moving on and seems to be doing what he wants Tammy .
You are a lot stronger now than you were a year ago ,while it still hurts you to think about things and to still feel the way you do . You know you have to be strong and move on .OK you also know that he will always be able to hurt you ,especially when it comes to the children .
He will break a promise or not keep to a time to take them out .
The Chances are his visits may get fewer and longer times between .
Yes it is easy for me to give my opinions sitting here at my computer .
But I have always been honest about what I say.I do feel for you and YES I know what your going through as well. I have been there Tammy .
I know how much it hurts, how degrading they make you feel ,how they can blame you and say ITS all your fault . I promise you Tammy It does get better ,it does hurt less. DO NOT blame yourself you did the best you could and you know it as well .Stop playing his mind games.
Now is the time for you to move  on and Let the new chapter in your book of life start now.The NEW Tammy ......
A Stronger and wiser ,deserving to be respected and considered  Tammy . You give so much of your life to others Tammy , its about time you got some back . Good luck when you go to town on MOnday .I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
Take care and God Bless you and your children Tammy .
Hugs Jan {Aunty J}

Tammy I am so sorry sweetie you are in so much sadness and grief and believe me I know the pain. If it helps scream out and shout to the Heavens and creid out to God for I did.  It hurts so much and you feel at times like how and why is all of this happening. You feel like going to sleep and forgetting it all and wake up and hope this is all just a dream and your days of being happy with Randy will come back.  I was with my ex-hubby for 34 years when our divorce was final. I know myself there is no pain like the pain of divorce and death. To me my divorce was like a death and I greived for so long. All I can say Tammy is tell you what helped me to get on with my life because I really did not want to live anymore without my ex-hubby.
 
First I had to move away from him so I would have to make new friends and get involved where I moved too and found work. I  was getting myself familiar with all of the new places that did not remind me of him and new people too.  I was glad that my ex said let us seperate first so he helped me with my expences while we were trying to work things out seeing each other every two weeks. But I had moved 328 miles away so I had no choice but make myself get up and get out and about and meet people. I knew noone here and had no family here just me and God was with me always.  The first thing I did was spend so much time alone and reading my bible and inspirational books. I was so tired of the bickering and felt like a ton had been lifted off of me but then at times I was very sad and lonely. I do know that each day I spent so much time with God in his words and praying to him that without a doubt I know it was God who helped me move on and start a new life. God gave me the strength, courage and peace within to start over.   Then each morning I got up early and went for a walk, and talk to God on my walks and always giving him praises for everything,  and eventually each day I started to get better but it took time to get over him.  Not everyone can afford to do this and I do understand and I think my ex- felt guilty and that is why he helped me to get into a apartment and he acted like it was for the both of us, but then he came down to see me like he always did every two weeks, and one day  and said now I want a diovrce. I pleaded with him for a whole month No let us keep doing this and we can work things out but he said no.
 
Once I had adjusted to my new place and new friends I actually felt alive again and very happy for it had been so much tension between me and my ex for about 2 years before divorce. Leaving our comfort zone is hard but what I had to learn is actually it was not about my comfort zone but about my fears of the unknown and taking a step to move out of the battlefield. I learned this from staying in daily prayers, talks, walks with God who helped me find my way to a life without so much misery, sadness and confusion.
 
I know it is scary and you wonder how you will make it but I can tell you  Tammy you are so loving and sweet and you will be surprize how many people will open up to you once they know for sure Randy is out of the picture. You stay true to your convictions, beliefs and kids and God will show you the way and he will do things that will amaze you but at first you will think hmmmm...wonder how that happen then you will know it is God working in your life and always give Our Lord Thanks and stay very close to him,  for there are many other men who can fool you too but listen always to God.  If it feels bad or wrong and you see red flags then run and fast. I will write more later sweetie right now I  must rest for my pain is severe.
 
Happy Halloween and have fun with your kids and be safe and careful.
 
Tammy you just hang on and do not let Randy yank you around but I know it is hard because you love him. Keep yourself busy and getting out around others so you have no room left to think of Randy except at night and then cried out to God and he will give you calmess and rest, and sleep. I know been through some of the worst nights in my life but God always calmed my storms when I cried out to him for help and relief.
 
Sending my love hugs and prayers MaggieSunshine

Thank you both very much 
 
I keep reminding myself of the women that have gotten thru this situation and came out stronger.  I just feel all alone and I am sort of scared. I know that I shouldn't feel this way but considering.........
 
My niece and nephew are here for the weekend so all of the kids are keeping me preoccupied (for the most part).  I think I'm going to lay down for a bit.    I will check in later ~  Hugs~T
