Well, my divorce is in progress. Wife cheated on me, confronted her, she had zero remorse.

She poisoned my dogs, and took my kid with her.

So for now, I'm angry. And bitter.

But the success stories I've read in here have given me hope. A light at the end of the tunnel, if you will. No more relationships. I'm in it for me, and only me.

Edit: thanks for all the kind words and support fellas. Really appreciate this community, that's for sure.

Edit 2: I don't have solid proof that she poisoned them, but when they both died from antifreeze ingestion, after our major last fight... Well, I doubt some lunatic hopped my fence, busted down my door, poisoned them, and the fixed it all on his way out. I will have to follow up with her, and see if I can get her to admit it.

Edit 3: The kid decided he wanted to go with her, no doubt because I have discipline and rules, whereas the mother just lets him do whatever he wants. As much as it pains me to lose him, he's old enough to make some decisions on his own, and this was one of them. So, unless a judge orders a different custody agreement, I'm just rolling with the punches to avoid further conflict.

Edit 4: thankfully, we had zero assets and debts to split, so as far as divorces go, it's going to be pretty simple. We both have used vehicles of equal value, and we were renting. We had no real savings or nest eggs. Or at least, I didn't. Because it's her fault for the divorce, I'm really hoping that the no contest filing will go through easy.
