Good for you Dallas. It is said that good things come to those who wait.
It is amazing what one will endure through their life and maybe not even know that things are oh so bad.
BTDT with a bi-polar exwife and one alcoholic exwife and many other "out there" people in my life.
I have an amazing 10 year old son who is the reason I wake every day.
Always take care of the things that really matter and the rest is just gravy.

Ten years ago I left my ex. My credit was crap, my kids hated me, I drove a car that barely went 30 mph, it was the pits. The only thing I had was a box of clothes. My ex is bipolar. The sad thing that I missed was spending more time with my girls while they were going through their younger teenaged years. Well, time heals. I can't get back the years that I lost, but have the best bond I have had with my girls in years. I can't believe my kids turned out great even dealing with their mother. My youngest is in school to get her PHD, my oldest is getting married this year and I finally bought the bike I have always wanted. Life is good finally after 16 years of a bad marriage and 10 to get my life back. I'm a middle aged man now. I feel younger than I have in years. All I got to say is don't give up hope. Everything is going to be just fine!
Yep.. Me too. My wife wasn't bipolar but she WAS the queen bitch of the universe. Thankfully we didn't have kids together but it was 11 years of living in hell with her as the gatekeeper.
I finally ended it and got my life back together too. Bought my first Harley and found me a great little canuck girlfriend just a hop across the border. Life is indeed great and I too feel like I am 20 again.

Feel your pain, my friend...Never look back and keep on smiling! Kids are pretty forgiving, I found out.


Respect to all.....

Wow, great story and glad everything worked out so well. Use your time wisely, you will create the memories you long for.

You know, there is no way to know when marrying a crazy b!tch, I seem to have had my fair share too. It needs to be like aids, a lawful disclosure required.

Have you ever taken anti-depressants?
Have you ever been admitted to a mental hospital?
Have you ever had regularly scheduled visits with a head doctor?
Have you ever tried to commit suicide?
Have you ever hurt yourself so you feel better?
Are you a mean b!tch?
Are you a compulsive liar?

If yes to any of the above, run like hell.
