    the economy is making everyone feel so fragile and vulnerable now, but remember, that is something very different from the insanity of being with an abusive, indifferent, personality-disordered loser. When my loser was in my life my business was going gangbusters, but my life was being turned upside down. Business is scary now…but the loser is gone. I can cope. Two different mind-sets. Morris, the dreams are so normal…a part of post traumatic stress syndrome, I think (even though that sounds overly dramatic). Remember…it’s all small steps…and small acts change destinies.

    Ann-

    I really like the idea of the rock and the bug underneath! I am definitely not going to give up on that; in the very least my ex ‘loser’ should be held financially responsible for part of the upbringing of his daughter.

    On a positive note, I got the job I had gone for a third interview for! I am pretty excited about it and at least now I feel like I am moving on to a new chapter in my life. Something I learned about emotional memory is the importance of creating new memories.

    The legal battle seems to be getting more and more complicated but I have come to expect the worst and most difficult scenario out of this divorce because the behavior upon which it was based is so out of the norm.

    I do feel lucky to have support from a lot of people who care and I thank you again and everyone else for thinking of me!

    Happy Holidays!

    Glad you are all hanging in. The news seems generally quite good!

    I have had further friendly messages from my former friend – and I have now changed my email. Yes, it’s hard, but it’s a lot less hard (not hard at all, really) when I remember that when I visited him he used to regale me with stories of former female assoicates who were “still good friends of his” – and then proceed to phone them and be told never to call again (or be hung up on). I would think “Oh no! His feeling will really be hurt!”, but, before I could express my sympathy, he would forget the whole thing and try to call another one. Didn’t bother him a bit, it seemed. It was purely recreational.

    So, leave the past behind and proceed into 2009! Happy holidays, everyone!

    Best wishes,
    ~Wendy

    Margaret-

    Thank you for your kinds wishes…We are Eastern Orthodox so the Christmas season is always important to us and I have been trying to focus on the meaning of the holidays this year with the girls, which is one of hope…

    It is disheartening to realize that instead of my ex ‘loser’ husband’s behavior becoming any better, repentant, or remorseful, it just becomes worse…While I cannot ACCEPT his less than human attitude towards his own daughter I do recognize that it is reality. I just have to focus on us now and once the legal matters have been taken care of (hopefully soon!)then that will just be one more chapter closed. It will be easier to move on then. I think a lot of it has to do with the emotional memory, when I have to recount an incident with the attorney it seems like I am reliving it. I do know that this won’t last forever…

    I wish you a wonderful Christmas season,

    Christina
