Re:New twist on an old story.... What is the GOOD part of your divorce? finney5: Awesome thread!
1) I can go to bed whenever I want, no matter how late and not have to listen to him mutter about it.
2) I can eat whatever I want (mashed potatoes for a week, thank you) and not hear him mutter about it.
3) I can walk around my house nekkid and not hear him mutter about it.
4) I can actually go out and DRINK and not have to worry about babysitting him.
5) I can go to work and know that the money I make is going to go to things that I want/need.
6) I can 'personalize' the house and decorate to my tastes now matter how experimental. (you can ALWAYS repaint if it doesn't work ;D)
7) I can cook with tuna.
8) I can stay out late, last minute and not have to worry about 'reporting' to anyone.
9) I can actually check out/go out with better guys rather than wondering/hoping/waiting for him to change.
10) I can sleep in til 1pm if I wanna. ;D
hmm.. most about food and sleep! Hey, a girl's gotta have priorities! WooHoo!!!! I'm lovin it.
Re:New twist on an old story.... What is the GOOD part of your divorce? brynne: I like this topic, esp. on a rainy Monday:
* I don't have to cringe everytime I hear him pull into the driveway.
* I don't have to worry about where he's been or why he goes in the other room to answer his cell.
* I can buy any groceries I want & don't have to buy his favorite brand of milk
* I don't have to hear him complain about money
* I can finally go to bed early w/out him coming in late & waking me up.
* I don't have to make excuses why he's not w/ me at an event or family function
* I can leave my clean clothes in the dryer for a week if I want to :)
* I don't have to put up w/ his comments about our sex life or sexual comments about attractive women on TV
* I don't have to listen to his comments about me being fat (I'm 5'4 & weigh 120)
I could go on & on...
Hope
