mel :)

Well done, I celebrated when my divorce came through as well :-)
Glad you met someone else and that you are happy.  My ex left me for another woman when our children were just three and just four.  That was ten years ago now and I although I was devastated at the time and thought I would never be happy again I met someone 6 months after in a pub where a crowd of us used to go on Friday nights and we are still together and have now got a four year old together.  Still can't stick my ex though (mainly because he won't pay towards his two children who live with me and are now teenagers)  :-(

hi anna,
  i was always told not to do it but i was pregnant thought i was doing the right thing etc,i made it last 7 years and have 3 beautifull little girls out of it and the experience to know what to change this time round.i met my new chap in a tattoo shop and we just clicked,i had already told ex that it was over but he didnt get the message untill i introduced him to new chap,even then he didnt move out for 4 months.it has taken a lot of stress to get where we are now,i tried to stay friends but i think he was hopeing i would change my mind,now the absolute is through maybe he will finally get the picture.
