Divorce after Twenty years together Community Group
I want to start something for those of us that were married for a long long time. I think that we face a little different issues than those who were dating for a few years or even married for shorter period of time. Being married for so long we have older children some have grandkids dealing with teenagers and their reaction to the divorice empty nesters dating after 40...

Ok I know it's been a long time since I have been on here. I have been pretty good. I mean seriously, really good. My son got a house and moved last month. He's getting engaged tomorrow to the girl he bought house with. (secret proposal while having family cook-out). My grandson (only one with either son) turned 1 on the 25th of July. I babysit him 4 days, sometimes 5, a week. I work 2 days. So you can see I am active and have little time for computer. I love that my 1 yr old keeps his Nona moving. lol
Ok, here is my issue. The ex opened a fb account. (well we all believe his other half did it cause he is computer illiterate.) He had the audacity to send a friend request to me and both sons. I have not accepted said request. Older son said he prefers it the way it is with NO contact with his father. The younger one has accepted only to mess with his father. He will comment on some of the posts. Mostly because daddy-dear posts some things like "I've tried and have finally given up" or "I wish my children happiness" you know where I'm going with this right? Posts of a large variety aimed at those subjects. Oh and he remarried on the 26th of July. yep! 3rd time. Not sure why he thinks this one will work. BUT it is with the last one he cheated on me with. At least 2-3 years before I kicked his sorry ass out.
Anyway, I digress. He has reached out to some of my friends and family members. My niece has accepted and I recently found out my brother did too. I asked dear bro why and he said "oh he probably will never write me anyway. Do you want me to delete him?" my response in my head was HELL YES! but the response I gave was "you are a big boy so do what you want but I was hoping my family had my back and wouldn't friend him. And to be honest, it upsets me." His wife recently reamed me out saying I was obsessed by him because of my fb posts. I explained I am in no way depressed (as per her wonderful insight according to her) and the posts aren't for me. I have friends with issues and some of the posts have helped them cope. She proceeded to say that "he's really not a bad guy" and "he didn't give you HPV. Cause you don't have it. It went away" Ok so when did she become my gyno?
So any advice would be appreciated. I would love to post something relating to him having his kin and leaving mine alone but I won't cause I refuse to let him know it bothers me. I just block or restrict some things so others who are friends don't see. I have blocked ALL his family so why can't he leave mine alone?
Oh wait!!!!!! I forgot to tell you!! I work part-time. The day BEFORE I was to work this man came in. It's a service plaza on turnpike. He proceeded to tell my friend #1 he used to live in this are for years and years #2 he moved back to his hometown (which is same as ex) #3 he was married for quite a few years but wife divorced him and last but not least #4 he hasn't talked to ex for some time but is hoping she will take him back. She described him to a t and when i showed her a pic she just about p'd her pants. IT WAS HIM!!!! 3 weeks before he said "I do" .
Now you have my history of my absence. Feel free to comment. lol

I had gone to the grocery store. When I wheeled my cartback to my car I just stool there a minute. A few spacesaway a Tesla Cyber truck was parked. I had seen it on theroad a few times for a few seconds. But not close up.It looked like it belonged to 2126 and not 2026. I wasgoing to take a picture of the car but the owners cameback and drove away. It was an ordinary middle age...

My advice to you is the same as for anyone who has an X on FaceBook. Either BLOCK him, IGNORE him or close your FaceBook account and just stay off it. More people get upset about what they see and read on there and it's totally ridiculous IMO. I think it's all pretty juvenile, actually. You don't need it and if what you are seeing on there is upsetting to you, then be an adult and stop going there.
Words to live by:
Does it hurt when I do that? Then DON'T DO THAT!
Big hugs to you xoxo
Big hugs!
