| Sorry to hear this. But a party? Remember, You live Once. Regardless of the sorrow, make the pleasure...Don't let him win by bringing you down..Been there. You seem strong; go with that. Although, the evil twin sounds good too...;) Good Luck.. |

It is sad when it becomes final. But, you move on, just as you have this past year.
What I did was make a copy of our wedding license, and burned it after the divorce was final. Was a bit much considering we had 20 years under our belts.
What I can tell you now, is that I'm glad its over. I did get two wonderful children out of my marriage, that have become terrific adults.
My best to you as always K:) |

Karma! Evil twin sounds very tempting! Just know he has his own karma coming and you don't have to do anything to him.
I wasn't there for my divorce either and I got a call from someone in NC where the divorce happened while I was here in OH. I had sent nobody on my behalf and they told me someone refused the child support he offered on my behalf.?????? They told me to go through OH courts for the child support matter since he was already paying for a child here. This was the first I knew about him having another kid! Long story if you want to hear it sometime.
It might be in your best interest to go even if it hurts! I don't know how they do things where you are but this just shocked the crap out of me that someone was speaking for me that I didn't know or appoint. |

anotherdaze - oh really!? wow .... yerr I'll consider it when I know the date - I work 4 days and play taxi on my day off - so I don't have a huge amount of spare time.
But thanks for the heads up - and would be interested in your story .. why not blog it? |

| I am sorry it had to come to this conclusion but, from everything you've written about FOTY, he is not good enough to shine your shoes. At least he gave you two wonderful children and, I assume, some very good times in those 10 years. Finally, what an ass - he couldn't remember your friggin wedding date? Ugh. Can't wait for the D party. I doubt I will make my way to Australia, but I will be there in spirit. Perhaps I will even get Downright Drunk in your honor. |

Okay they only thing I am going to say, IS GO. I know that it will hurt, and if you already have supicions that he may BS. Then don't think about it. Beside I have heard to many stories where things have been changed for the worse when the wife hasn't gone. If you really can't go, see if someone can go on your behalf a close friend, or relitive that you trust to look out for your and the kids best interest. And someone to make sure he doesn't say he is spending every spare moment with the kids.
You need to look after you and the kids. |

Hey Easy, does $3000 sound far fetched???? Try it :) I think 300 is letting him off easy. Im liking your evil twin :)
I'm going to start taking some kickboxing lessons so that I can show FOTY what I've learnt when I come to Australia! How dya like that??? |

| Easy - this man sucks! I can't believe he could not remember the damn wedding day. That's just crappy, after you ahve given him 2 beautiful children and had a life together. What is it about 10 year relationships? That's how long mine lasted too. Oh and I would probably want to tell him enough to go shopping for yourself, buy yourself something nice. You deserve it, but then again, I would have trouble living with myself if I was dishonest and would probably just be happy to have it over with. |
