Re: I Wonder Why JustBlu: BD,
I think many of us feel the same, why does it seem to work out for them!!
I really like the brick house analogy, but this brick house is still being built and feels very cold right now.

Re: I Wonder Why superwife: BD,
I thought I was in the same boat as you. My ex left me for the OW, and they immediately moved in together, and formed a little family (with my daughter and her son). They could not get married (as we are not legally divorced yet). I really didn't think it was fair.
Then last week my daughter comes back from his house and tells me the OW is moving out and she will never see her or the kid again. He left me two years and 2 weeks ago, and they moved in together in June of '05.
So yeah, it's not necessarily all it's cracked up to be. And she may never admit that to you, as mine will never admit it to me. Maybe she is stuck, like I assumed mine was for a while now (they share expenses, he has a pseudo-mommy to help him with our daughter, etc).
It takes time and patience for the karma to kick in. Not that I really look at my ex's situation as a huge victory for me. It really doesn't affect me in the least. It affects my daughter, but it doesn't make me feel any better about much.
Re: I Wonder Why BobFromAcctg: I'm kind of in the sme position BDad in that it has been 2 years for me and I have not met anyone either. My X didn't cheat on me or anything even close to that but I understand about wanting someone.
I'm hoping that given enough time, I will find someone that will want me around. PLus I think the fact that it has taken this amount of time will allow me to be stronger when I do actually meet someone.
At least thats what I hoping for!!!
Re: I Wonder Why l0progression: The divorce rate for 2nd time marriage (likely because so many of those unions are like that of your ex and her fuck buddy) are somewhere in the 75% area.
I wouldn't worry too much about her living happily ever after. So far, you've only had to deal with one divorce, there is a 75% chance she'll be dealing with two.
Good things come to those who work the hardest for them. That means a lot of time of introspection, singledom, and searching.
I Wonder Why rjack0612: Well the divorce is final. She is going to marry the guy she was ceheating with and here I am 2 years later, still alone, cannot find anyone that I can connect with. I wonder what is in store for me. Nice how God let in work out for the cheating ho and I have nothing.... amazing.
