The sweetest word of love, I hear these days is "Daddy" ! Yes, I agree "Seperated" is not single, yet, "Divorced" does not mean single either. I am a father with a son, and I will never, ever be a single, unattached soul. I will soon be a single father. And proud of it!
Some day, I will love another woman, fully, in mind, spirit, and body. Yet, no one should compare that new love to the love for my child. I am bound to my son for the rest of my life. Daily, I make new life decisions with that bond clearly in mind. I am fighting,slaving,working,planning and dreaming every day with new challenges to stay near my son, because he needs me. Twice weekly, I take half days off work to spend more time with my son.
I do not deserve to be "branded as defective" because a document has not cleared a 3rd world country's antiquidated judicial system.
As I have said before, your stories on CS forum has become "Divorce Anonymous" for me. And, as I have been more forth coming with my story in the forums, the number of flowers sent to me has decreased dramatically. One young CS lady even suggested that I change my profile as "soon to be divorced" is not attractive to many. May be so, but it is me today. It takes time to sever the marital threads, especially with a young son involved.
This thread moves me to cancel my profile on CS. But I am stubborn.
I Know You're Out There Somewhere!
