First post

OK, I just wanted to share, but I want to make it short and sweet. Any questions or extra detail I'll try to share on request. Found RP community about two years ago after reaching crazy head shaking confusion about why my marriage was so bad, and continued to worsen over 13 yrs. I was recovering from giardia, and I didn't know I had it and thought I was having anxiety manifested illness, or heart trouble and saw a shrink and got on meds. I had just started a new position at work and was kind of freaking out. My wife was using my weak state to dominate the f out of me. So, nasty; relentless shit tests, withholding sex way more than normal, and even demeaning me during before and after sex. Attacking me all the time in front of our kids, toddler and just under 10. Well, then I found RP after scouring message boards and forums. Read NMMNG. eye opener, I buy it for everyone I think could use it. Then TRM, 50 laws, etc.

Cut to chase.

Started working out like crazy, lost 20 lbs. Quit letting my wife control my frame. Did my own thing. And, well, as they say, this will either help or end a bad relationship. My wife went batshit crazy. After about six months during which time she got a inheritance, she moved out with my kids. And just after this she received a large severance package from her work. I wanted to call the cops on her for removing the children from the home, but I don't. It shook me to the core, but I kept working out and reading.

Fast forward... today I have 50/50 custody, no child support or ex wife payment (divorce is not final yet but we are very close, no attorneys just a mediator. We are both smart enough to keep civil, me more than her of course), it's been a crazy ride, but RP ideas have helped me not to fold to her crazy moves and constant attacks).

And!!! Moved into a very nice new house with my new ROCKSTAR partner who is a real person (yes, they do exist).

Trying to sell old house, either to ex or open market.

TY R😊😊😊, I now need continuing education to stay sharp. I'm happier than I have ever been in my whole life.

Cheers!
