I don't miss feeling like I was in a gerbil wheel going no where fast, trying to keep up with all our finances while he just sat at home watching soap operas and smoking cigarettes ... I don't miss the intense fear of not being able to make ends meet while he acted like everything was fine .. I don't miss trying to talk to him about my concerns to just have him be-little me ... I don't miss going to bed night after night alone while he stayed up so he could play games online with his female friends ... and the list goes on and on ....

I can definitely relate to this. Sometimes when the scale is heavily weighted onto one person in a marriage it becomes obvious that something is wrong. I haven't missed my ex for one minute and it's been more than 2 years.
I thought we would get back together, no thanks.
I know you will be happier even though it's hard at the beginning. Hang in there!

I don't miss feeling threatened. I don't miss wondering where he was all the time. I don't miss walking on egg shells all the time so as not to upset him. I don't miss his constant accusations or name-calling I don't miss anything about him.

I don't miss him making fun of my television shows. I do not miss him coming home and immediately turning on his computer to talk with the OW. I do not miss going to bed alone while he is out in the living room playing online games. i do not miss handling the budget, him complimenting me on doing such a great job but then complaining about how he wishes we had more in the account. I do not miss being his scapegoat with his parents. I do not miss having him complain about onions in whatever dinner was that night. In fact, I do not miss having to go crazy making a menu that he would eat!! I do not miss him not helping out with the chores. I do not miss him saying Oh I will get to it and find that by the end of the weekend it was never done anyway!! I think I will stop there.

* Don't miss his constant complaining
* LASTLY I don't miss the competition he always tried with competing to be the best parent ??????

Listening to his long pee in the middle of the night and his constant cough...

I am so sorry Queendy...I promise that I will take some cough syrup and not drink so much again. I will behave better tomorrow night. :P

I don't miss him getting angry at every little thing, like the pasta being overcooked.

I don't miss the sigh and look of disdain because I didn't get to cleaning the bathroom yet, although I work full time too, and have to take care of kids, bills, shopping, everything else.

I don't miss him zoning out in front of the TV in the dark and ignoring me.

His right wing political rants -don't miss those a bit.
Don't miss his "never apologize" philosophy.
Certainly don't miss the accusations that I was hiding money (I wasn't - he was just spending like there was no tomorrow.Bought himself a new Jaquar for his 40th birthday - did he discuss it with me? No, nor the Jeep Cherokee nor the Nissan, nor the Suburban.

Nope, don't miss him a bit!

i don't miss picking him up at the half-way house a half hour away because he lost his license. i don't miss having to take him to the store. i don't miss paying the cell phone bill. i don't miss him talking about the big future he was going to have. i don't miss him talking about the big future we were going to have, of course i'm sure i would have been paying for it. i don't miss all the broken promises. and i don't miss being accused of all i did wrong and how i like being in control.

I don't miss being sole support all those years.
I don't miss being afraid to say anything after 6 pm at night. That was when he went to bed.
I don't miss the drunken stupors that he got into, and cleaning up the vomit and other stuff that I won't mention here.
I don't miss listening to his music 14 hrs of the day, when I did not have to work, or did not take the kids away.
I don't miss the smell of being drunk on him all the time.
I don't miss him hurting me physically, and verbally.
I don't miss him cheating on me.
I don't miss the lies.
The list is long, so I will stop there. Suffice it to say. I don't miss him, and I am so thankful to be where I am today!

What I have gained.
I can wear lotion if I want too now, or perfume.
I can cook squash, which I love, and never could while married to him.
I can paint my fingernails in the house.
If I make money now, it is mine.
My children can laugh , sing, play, make noise, live now. We all walked around on egg shells before.
I can breathe. I can sleep. I can smile... So very many wonderful things in my new life..
Hugs to all my ds family. Kimmee

Having to answer to him after I go grocery shopping. I used to get those "you spent too much" or those "you are a moron for speding that much" looks. This after spending $90-$100 for TWO weeks.

That and the spit cups and the ESP freakin N

I don't miss his snoring!!

I just don't miss my ex - period ... shrug

HER FUCKING BLACKBERRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
