At 33 & the divorced mother of 2 girls,11 & 14. Divorced since 97. Tried many times to reconcile with my ex but he & I were in different worlds.His world:crime, cheating, lying, drugs, alcohol, & violence.Mine:college, raising a family, trying to progress, securing a home, maintaining gainful employment. Ex is in prison. My first daughter's father was murdered, shot to death,when she was 7 yrs. old.I don't take bs off a man. I prayed for deliverance from the hell I went through with my ex & promised God that I would never allow another man to take me down so low.God delivered me & I kept my promise. I haven't had a BF since 2000.That BF was nice & we lived together for about a year but he had a different view of life that involved quick & easy money not hard work.I vowed never to live with another man & I haven't. I got this job as a victims advocate in 01. I help other women but I worry about my girls. They know how not to take crap but how will they know how to love and be loved?
