New here, introducing myself

Hello....


My name is Jami, and I'm newly separated. My husband and I have been married for almost 14 years, and we have three boys together. They are 15, 13, and 4. I thought I'd check this board out. Even though the separation was my idea, and I'm very content with the decisions I've made, I know at some point, I'm going to have questions for other BTDT ladies.

Hi Jami! Welcome!

Seven years ago, I was in the same place you are..... I moved out, though our separation was mutual, we were getting along, things were fine, and then... BAM!

This board always helps!

HI Jami! I'm new here too and the separation/divorce was also my idea. Nice to see other "my idea" ladies around!! I feel like such the bad guy!!

I'm done with feeling like the bad guy!! He's tried that route. He's played the 'poor, pitiful me...my wife wants a divorce card' and I'm done with it.


I know that I have tried! I gave our marriage a chance when most women I know would have packed up and left.


Luckily, we are on pretty good terms right now. He's quit living in denial, and that helps a lot.
