Sounds like you are doing well Lee. Initial separation is really tough on both of you but you survived. Better times are ahead. :)

I'm glad to hear you are getting through this. Best wishes for a successful recovery.

It's fantastic to hear that things seem to be going really well, not only on the personal front for you, but that the actual divorce itself seemed to go so quick and easy.

Wow....that is a fantastic update. You almost never hear such a good outcome like that. Its the best case scenario when you have to part ways.....treat each other like adults, be fair, and stay friends.

congrats, Lee.

Good for you Lee.
My divorce was the best thing ever. Kind of like a knee replacement, you know it will hurt and there will be downtime but afterwards you wonder why you didn't do it sooner. My ex and I are good friends now, better than the last 6 years of our relationship.

If you got along that well at the property settlement, I expect that you'll get along OK afterwards. My ex-wife was a total "B" at the settlement, but we went back to sort-of friends once everything was over. Best of luck in your endeavors!

Your post speaks well for both of you.

How is your daughter doing?

Great update, good for you! Hope your daughter is doing well! Happy Thanksgiving.

Good for you.

Kind of funny, our first date lasted 6 hours with a 3 hours dinner and just like you the last hour they were close and cleaning up the place.

A suggestion for your second date, Do Not take her to see "Pulp Fiction" like I did :D:):D but she still marry me.

Excellent Lee, I'm glad things are going as well as possible considering the circumstances.

Much more difficult than losing a fair-weather friend, but sounds like it worked out for the best.
You both realized a better path in life, and the daughter will have an expanded extended family in the future.

Mine was "Platoon"....

Oh and the other one, with a different girlfriend was "8mm"

Chin up - soldier on.
I lost my first wife to cancer. Life does go on.

Sounds like you're in a good place, Lee. Kudos to you for surviving and thriving.

Great to hear Lee!

Haha, gotta be the most awkward first date movie ever!

Thanks for the update, so glad to hear it went so smoothly and you're doing well!

Good to hear, Lee....as KC said....SAIL ON, brother!

They weren't first dates, but they were ****ty dates!

Lee, I hope you remember some of the advice from long ago when some said to give it plenty of time and put yourself first. Get out, play the field and have fun.
