Ok, so having followed this
tit show from I think about thread 15, I’m finally delurking to post something.
When I first heard about this divorce, I felt really sorry for Alice as my ex left me for his very much younger woman when our children were 16, 4 and ten months old. He’d been having an affair with his colleague since I was pregnant with the youngest.
Then I read the threads here and totally changed my opinion!! Alice is… well I don’t even have the words, but yeah, I’ve lost sympathy.
I work 45 hours a week in a low paid but rewarding job, and have done since I cut my maternity leave by a month because he left. My ex and I share amicable fifty fifty custody of the younger kids who are now five and nine. He married the woman he left me for and she’s now my children’s stepmother and they like her very much. The ex and I go to parents evenings etc together and just last month had a joint birthday party for the youngest.
Did it all hurt? Yes! Was I angry? Yes! Do we have to be adults and get over the whole thing? Also yes.
Mu children are well adjusted and love both of their homes (and I’m also remarried and very happy
