I Survived #3

Divorce (or the dissolution of marriage) is the termination of a marital union, the canceling and/or reorganizing of the legal duties and responsibilities of marriage, thus dissolving the bonds of matrimony between a married couple under the rule of law of the particular country and/or state.

I Survived Divorce

In March of 2008 my marriage was done. After a long hard argument I told her to leave that I could not deal with her and the fighting anymore. It had taken its toll on me body and soul. The constant arguing had been going on for several years and none of our truces she had agreed to was not sticking. I was tired of trying to salvage a sinking marriage by myself. So after she moved out and her thinking that I was just ranting about getting divorced and did not mean it, she found out that I meant what I said that it was over and done. We agreed that it was going to be a simple quiet divorce and since we did not have kids I did not think it would take long to file it and be done with it, but I was wrong. I went to divorcewriter.com and got the ball rolling. I paid for the entire divorce myself. I did not want any of her money and she was still thinking that I would not go through with the paperwork. Of course my divorce ran into several obstacles. First my grandmother died and second all the required paperwork. It is funny to me that if you have in the paperwork several times that you do not have ANY KIDS, the court wants another piece of paper stating that you do not have kids. It freaked me out I did not know what to do. So I looked at my paperwork and I went through all of the fonts and borders in Word 2010. I was able to match up everything perfectly and got it signed and filed. May of 2008 we met the judge, we argued before meeting the judge, and officially became divorced.

She posted a simple little blog on her Myspace (anybody remember that site) She said somethings that I did disagree with. In her eyes it was faster to get a divorce compared to getting married. No to me it was the same amount of time and it was just as stressful. All she had to do was sign and I did everything else for it. I have no regrets about getting divorced, to be honest it was either get divorced or somebody in my house was going to get hurt or worse and I was not going to jail. We both did something that screwed up our marriage, but to me she did more damage than good. She could not do the simple things that was in all of our truces. I also feel like if she had listened to her parents advice things would of been smoother but she did not. She stopped trying to be the wife she should of been and simply became a pain in the ass roommate.

Its been six years now since my divorce and I am happier now with her gone and my health is slowly getting better (less stress). I hope that she is happy now since I found out she remarried. We agreed that we could not be friends and I really did not want to be friends with her. The last time I saw her she had this I wish you would die look, but I have since forgiven her and now she is someone else's problem.
