Re:What to do with STBX's stuff? Kinney26: I read the first couple chapters of Uncoupling and it just pissed me off. It just shows how dishonest she was to me about her feelings for a long time. She always told me how much she loved me, when in reality she was just trying to convince herself that she did. That book is so seemingly dead on, it is bothersome.
Re:What to do with STBX's stuff? amess: yes, it's blunt, but if you can get through it, there will be parts that will make you see that the initiator doesn't always come out a winner, and that the partner usually does heal and moves on quite well. It shocked me and made me feel sad, more than angry, and really used. What makes me angry and disgusted now is the stbx's petty, pi$$y divorce settlement toings and froings.
Re:What to do with STBX's stuff? picadilly: Bon fire comes to mind. But thats just me. ;)
All her stuff she didn't take went to the Salvation Army & Big Brothers. Donations, atleast someone can use it.
Be well.
Re:What to do with STBX's stuff? p_cakes7: well, i think i've shaken off that labor day weekend FUNK. i wallowed around in that mire, muck, darkness, and drear for two weeks (the week before and the week after). i am getting back to my previous routine. :)
i haven't made a decision about the STBX's stuff. it has fallen back to Low Priority. i'd like to get back to the 'life' i have been living all these months alone.
i hope this helps someone realize that the road ahead will be a rollercoaster: down, up, loop-de-loop, and everything in between. the tough times really do pass. eventually, we'll get on another ride.

thanks for the suggestions.
