I got pregnant by a guy who thought was a night in shining armor (turned out to be a jerk in tin foil). When I miscarried at 12 weeks I was devastated! I had serious depression after that. I stopped living in a way and was just there. One day it dawned on me that I needed to leave if I was ever going to move on. 3 weeks later I was at Naval boot camp in Chicago. That led to meeting my wonderful hubby and having a beautiful son. I'm even pregnant again! I'm no longer in the Navy because I wanted to stay at home to care for my son myself but I know that if I hadn't of joined the Navy that day, I wouldn't have the wonderful life I have now.

Yes, definitely. The beginning of my senior year of high school, I was with a boyfriend who convinced me to go to the local tech college and move in with him the next year. Breaking up with him was one of the best choices I ever made. For one because he was completely wrong for me, and for the other reason, he was trying to tie me down way too much and almost convinced me to make a decision that really would have been a bad one. After breaking up, it was like I was hit with a lightening bolt. I realized what an idiot I had been to plan my life around a guy who was completely wrong for me, any guy, actually...and realized what I wanted all along was to go away from home to a university. It's only an hour and a half away, but I really want to just get away for awhile and experience "college life." I have been really excited ever since, even after I met my new boyfriend. He understands and supports my decision to go away to college, and he even seems a little excited to come and visit me at school. This just furthur proves my theory that everything happens for a reason! I'm so happy with the way things turned out, both school-wise and romantically.

I've taken a few risks in the last few months, nothing very risky actually for todays society but a risk for my values & beliefs. I would like to make a final decision in regard to it and know that it would turn out good as I have nothing to look forward to otherwise.And it would mean the world to me if it did. My life in fact.

YES!! I left my ex after being with him for 21 years. It was a big risk that I had to take for my own sanity.
My ex is a liar, cheater, abuser, drug user/abuser, thinks it's his right to cheat and disrespect women, he didn't respect me, himself, or our marriage. He has bipolar disorder, ADHD, and possibly schizophrenia.
Since I left him, I have found the most awesome and amazing guy ever. He is my soulmate and we plan to get married, but not sure when yet. He treats me like a queen with all the love and respect that I deserve.

Yes it does happen to a lot of people. but people with guts. you have to take a huge risk sometimes to make things better at your end. it happends because most of the people settle down with what is not risky. but people who risk are winners. coz they play it with confidence.
