I just found this thread (((((((((((((gg))))))))))) and I'm sooooooooo very happy that you've found yourself again! As with hellsbells, I am of the very lucky few who have come to know you on a more personal level and so I knew most of what you said above already.......cept for the new Pixie interest. She (whomever she is) has to know she is meeting and getting to know one of the truest, trusting, tender and caring men on the planet! I am so very happy for you and her and I wish you the best of whatever comes from this future meeting.

Do me a favor hun........wrap your arms tightly around yourself and squeeze real good and long and consider that a hug from me in the USA to you in Australia.......(as close as I'll get till I actually get there for that visit we talked about oh so long ago!)

Luv ya Ian! (((((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))))))) TY for sharing with us!

Grumble -- Your situation is painful and I believe you have dealt with it honorably. I wish you the best of luck in finding your happiness -- you are right...everyone deserves it.

Good lord, I thought I was the only one to go through something like that! My ex wife had all the same attitudes and behaviours. I can sympathize with all that you have said. We divorced after eight years. I did not stay in the same house, but have committed myself to staying in the same town, so that I can be close to my daughter. My ex and I are freindly but far from freinds. I make it a point to stay amicable for my daughter's sake. I, like you, am ready to move on, but have yet to find someone. I am glad to here that things are looking up for you. You certainly deserve the best! Best of luck!

Grumbleguts-
Glad to hear that you're moving on... I think its a shame and a waste, when people get burned, they just give up! From what Mom (teddy) has told me you deserve all the happiness you can gather.
