I don't understand this~Here is a man that when things didn't go his way, OMG he would do the most horrific things, but when things were going his way things were wonderful. and I know I have to get over this and I will but, When does the pineing end? and Why am I PINEING..when he was the NASTY one and all I ever did was love him and wanted this to work more than anything..
I waited 7 yrs to get remarried..he on the other hand he gets married to the next before the ink is dry.. (Remember I'm his 4th Ex_WIFE, and was only married to him less than 2 yrs and only lived with him 5 months of that, but still continued to see him).Why is it, when a wife absolutely loves him and adores him and this man could have sex anytime he wanted (thats what he longed for all his life, was a wife to love being with him physically, were 50 and 52 yrs old.) would he treat me this way...I get mad for even thinking all this, because he is not worth the breath I breathe, but I LOVED HIM and I beleived in him. :(
It's only been a month since the divorce. When does the thinking about him end? There is times when I want to e-mail a cute joke to him and I know I can't. It's very hard for me to be mean and not talk.But when I did get mad at him I got more respect and attention from him. His Birthday is in Oct and I would not have a problem sending him a card, but he didn't send me a card last week when it was my birthday (but thats so him when things don't go right, we all get punished)
I caught myself going past his house this afternoon. First time I did that. I'm sure he has done that also, he has driven past before we were divorced. He even went as far as gathering up photos of myself and us together along with letters and cards and laid them all out in the guest bedroom and invited me over to go down memory lane about 6 months ago, I thought that was weird.. Do men go through a pineing fase also? Victoria

I wish I had the answer for us. I know we will both live through this one day at a time.

I am almost one year since the beginning of the legal procedings and 6 months after the paper was official (still finishing the custody and property though. Although I didn't miss him one bit (I am the one who left him because of being terrified of him) I did feel the pain from wondering why someone would do such things to me and the emptiness at wondering if I would ever find a real love.
The first month from the beginning of legal procedings was probably the worst because of the unknown. I was uncontrollably crying from the stress for the first 4 months since beginning legal procedings. Then suddenly I started to wake up that life was much more rewarding and relaxed now that he was gone. Unfortunately I still had that underlying anxiety partly due to legal procedings still continuing. But for the next months I started making positive changes to those things around me. Broken things were fixed, unfinished things were finished, new challenges were met..... I think you just have to ride it out and wait for the phases to pass. It takes time and one or two months is not enough. In any case, you may wish to go to counseling to let out some of the stress building up. You will most likely speed up the healing if you do. Don't be too hard on yourself, this is a very traumatic time and you are bound to have lots of emotions over it in the beginning. Things will improve though if you keep focused on what you have to do.
Do I have to be nasty just because he was. Trust me, I have had my share of words with him and he deserved ever bit of it. But what is the harm in sending a birthday gift to him. That is just my personality, I know that use to kringe him because he would always say that I was too gracious of a mother..I think thats a compliment.
I don't want him to think that just because he can be nasty, that i am not. I don't want to get back in a relationship with him, just trying to be nice, because its his birthday...Is it ever wrong to be nice, maybe I'll be rewarded in heaven some day...or do you all think thats crazy thinking...

I agree with you~
See he NEVER wanted this divorce, he BEGGED me to come back. I couldn't after everything that has happened. Our divorce was pending, because we put it on hold to see if we could work it out, but I knew in my heart I couldn't go back. but he didn't know that and things weren't going in his time frame, So instead of letting the courts dismiss the case and have to start ALL OVER again. (LOTS OF MONEY) He decide to sign papers and end it.
So I found this Picture of A golden Retriever and a Golden puppy(He has both just like that) I couldn't resist it and I know he would love it. I would like to mail it to him. And put on the back That it reminded me of Shadow and Butter (his dogs) and I hope you get years of enjoyment out of it. Happy 52nd, birthday. Take care (he knows I really don't care for those 2 words, there so impersonal)
And YES, I do want him to think about me and I want to have the last say (just in words on the back of picture) and just let him think about things and he does do alot of that. I do not want to talk to him personally...and then I can walk away with my head held high

Then do you see that you are not doing this to "be nice" at all?
I still have alot of feelings for this man and my intentions are all good. My intentions are to give him this gift, because it's from my heart. Everything I have done for him has been from my heart. I'm not trying to be cruel, thats not me..I JUST WANT HIM TO THINK ABOUT ME AND ITS ALL NICE THINGS I PLANNED ON WRITING...
My family has been upset with me because I have always been way too kind to him. I have showed my anger in the past, maybe not as much as most women would have. I have also cried a ton... I'm his 4th ex and he is 52...How many chances does he think he is gonna get...I never want to be back with him...I just wanted to wish him Happy Birthday. But I haven't fully made up my mind if I'm gonna do that yet..part of me says YES and the other part says SCREW IT..
