My divorce was a big eye opener! I thought I had a husband for life and I never dreamed he would cheat. I was 100 pounds over weight and I was that when he met me...before you think he went for a skinny chick...the woman that took my place is just as heavy. ANYWAY...I had to tell my friends at bowling and the guys on the other team said to me....with a body like yours no guy is going to look twice at you. I was at my lowest of lows. But what it did was I thought no more feeling sorry for myself. I did something about it. I went from a size 24 to a size 6/8. I am very proud of myself...before I used to have low self esteem. I think my divorce even though I didn't ask for it...I think it has made me into a better person. Don't let anyone ever bring you down like those guys did me in the bowling alley. Alway have love for yourself!

After I divorced the X: I felt free, I was not depressed anymore, I felt I was worth something, I felt that a purpose, I was no longer discouraged to follow my golas and dreams. I was motivated to finish my degree, My friends wanted to talk to me and hang out with me again, I ate alot better, I was just a much happier and pleasent person after divorcing her.

She offered no encouragement to what I was trying to acheive in the long run, she was greedy, wanted money but wanted ME to do all the work for it which I couldn't do going to school full time and working pretty much full time.

But she got what she deserved. If she wasnt like that she'd be with me now, I'd have gotten that degree byt working hard and getting a good job, and buying a house, with a dog, a new car. While she still lives off other people.

My wife now gets to reap the benefits of being patient.

It made me realize that bad things can still happen to two good people. It made me understand that no matter who's fault it is or was, both people deserve to be happy, and if they can't do it together, then they should do it apart, with no hard feelings or ill will toward the other. It also made me realize that not everything in life comes in a nice, neat little package. Things change, people change, and I have to be ready to ride the wave of change at any given time, because it doesn't just apply to marrige. It made me realize while I should love to the fullest, I should love myself more.
It made me realize that I am responsible for myself,and that includes my OWN happiness, because it is something found within, and not in someone else. It made me realize, I am a lot stronger than I thought.

Changed me for the better. It made me realize what I will tolerate and what I won't. I know what I want, and I won't settle for less. I just broke up with my boyfriend 2 days ago because after 2 yrs he still won't make a commitment to me. I've given 150% to the relationship, and if he loves me, its time he started doing the same. If not, then its his loss!!!

It felt like the weight of the world had been lifted from my shoulders. WHEW!!!!!!!!!!! It was really great! My first marriage was really great, but regrettably he died, after 30 years of marriage. Then 5 years later I married again - - - what a disaster! Once you have had steak you do not want hamburger!!!!!!!!!! I love being single and do not want to go down the aisle again.

well it taught me a valuable lesson. drunks can't be changed but when you are 18 and young you think they will change and the drinking just slowly gets worse. there is nothing anyone can do and then it went to betting and much other things. beating of kids and me its unreal. so when you look again you are very carefull about whom you speak to and look at their back ground very carefully.

changed my mom for the worse. i guess it depends on the circumstances. if you're both not happy then i guess it's for the best, but if one is and one isn't the one that was won't be... it just depends.
