I've Been Bad

[SS MAYFLOAT]

At the end of last years boating season, I got busy renovating the inside of my cabin. It took me all winter, but I got everything done. During this time of spending countless hours in the wood shop, my wife and I started drifting apart. Around April, I got to the point of just not being happy at home anymore. So in May, the wife moved out when she found text messages on my phone to a lady I had been talking to. Yeah, I forgot to clear the messages out. :facepalm: Long story short, my divorce will be in late July.

The lady I met is a bit younger,,,,,well a lot younger than me Will be moving her in later on this month. Oh boy, I'm a happy boater now. She does fish and does many things that I like to do vs the wife who is completely TV bound all the time she is not working. I feel great as I have someone now who enjoys every thing that I do.

So this is why I haven't been around to be a pest .......SS

Well... welcome back. Sounds like it's so far behind you that you look forward to enjoying what you have now.

I wish all marriages could work great 100% of the time, but never understood why two people should be miserable just because divorce is some sort of dirty word/thing.

Hope you and your ex both landed on your feet, so to speak. Maybe she landed on her buttocks on a couch. lol

I really suggest not doing this part! You sound just like my friend...getting divorced and moving the new girl in right away. He is totally regretting it and wished he waited awhile.

Re: I"ve Been Bad

Sorry to say SS but it sounds like you could be jumping from the frying pan into the fire. When you get out of one relationship and do not give the 'water' time to seek it's own level, you will be headed for certain future grief. Sorry, just my $.02!

Re: I've Been Bad

Guys, a few too many questions that could spoil a harmless thread from a friend of ours.
Lets remember one thing SS said......

I feel great as I have someone now who enjoys every thing that I do.S

Re: I've Been Bad

From the time I was 16 til this situation (38 years). I always had been faithful to those women I was with. This is the first time for me to stray. I'm not proud of what I did, but living life like a zombie isn't any fun either.

Wife and I have agreed on how to seperate things. I have an empty house almost that is worth far less than what is owed. I get my boat, bucket truck, and the dog. I have to come up with a lump sum for spousal support before the divorce. That is going to be rough and hope I don't have to sell things I worked hard for to only get pennies on the dollar. In a way, I have realized that the material things doesn't matter. Being happy like I never have is worth the while.

During this past marriage, I lost many of friends because she was very anti-social in our private lives. Now that my old friends have found out, they are coming around to visit and go fishing again. I've been wanting to get out of this rut for the last 3 years. Just never had the courage to hurt the wifes feelings. The lady I'm dating I have known for the last 5 years. For the last year it got a little more serious but without any hanky panky until April of this year. She has two sons (10 and 18) that really like me and is excited to move in.

Sorry it took awhile for me to post again, been very busy moving and with work. We have one store that is getting a complete remodel, one that is under construction for a double drive thru, and one is getting tore down then rebuilt. So between moving her, and getting the scrap from the construction, its been rough to check in here at iboats.

Sure do miss being on the forum like I once was.

I decline to give any personal feelings on the situation. I do however wish you well with any and all decisions you make.

Re: I've Been Bad

Women problems don't make no difference to the hard core boat addicts you find around here.Women and cell phones = trouble.

Re: I've Been Bad

I wondered what happened to you.
I hope it all goes well for you.
My 1st marriage, I am sad to say, was all doom-and-gloom, and looking back, getting out of it was the best thing I ever did. So I can understand your situation.
Good luck.
Cheers
Phillip
