Humbled

Hi it’s been a while since my last Blog I did start on several occasions but always something I needed to deal with came up .

On the odd few minutes I have spent here reading other peoples stories I’ve come to realise just how bad relationships can be and more so how cruel uncaring and downright nasty people can be in a relationship. I suppose to some extent I’m a little naive I read the stories in the news but somehow it just doesn’t seem real. Perhaps it’s because I’m at the opposite end of the spectrum to these people? perhaps its because to me if you love someone you show that affection, you show you love them, you want to do everything possible give everything you can to make them happy cos that’s what makes you happy in return. But that’s just me and how I am.

I read Chillygirls Blog and tried to post a reply but I was dumbstruck what could I say here was an incredibly strong woman who has a terrific strength of character and a personality to match who had gone through hell and back and yet still found it possible to see the good times. I was humbled in the extreme. I didn’t comment I just didn’t know what I could say to her and still don’t except chilly girl if you read this I’m so pleased your away from him you deserve so much more out of life. Good luck and all the best.

I read more, if you wrote a Blog I probably read your story. Some like Frankie Lee’s which gets me asking. Am I the odd one?? Is this mistreatment of women the norm? Am I alone in thinking? If your happy and love someone you want them to be happy too?? How somebody can mistreat the person they so say love and why people allow themselves to be treated in this way is way beyond me although in truth the latter is easer for me to understand cos like me some of us just hoped something would happen to turn the relationship back to the good thing it once was. Personally I think you all deserve medals.

Now I’ve written that I don’t know what to say about the week in my life as you know my daughter passed her driving test, now this house is more akin to a B&B than her home but I’m so pleased she is able to get out and visit her friends.

My sol has been instructed to get a move on with the divorce now stbx has admitted her adultery.

Sol wants me to agree visiting rights for my wife to visit my daughter that made me laugh she lives 15 feet away for god sake how can we avoid her?? My daughter is 17 and has a mind of her own. They go shopping, see each other every day. my stbx can come over anytime she wants just so long as she accepts this is our home not hers, as long as she respects our privacy and as long as she doesn’t expect me to be her friend or talk to her.

Sorry I tried to keep it friendly but I couldn’t I’m entirely to blame for this one. I have nothing to say to her and nothing nice decent good or respectful to say about her so I keep my big mouth shut.

Time to go just remember nobody but nobody deserves to be a punch bag or a door mat everybody deserves to be treated with respect and that includes you, every single one of you!!!

A song I tend to listen to when i'm on a downer normaly very loud and with this tone deaf fool trying to sing along. Anyway I dont know if this link will work you might have to cut and paste into your browser and give it a while to load. you should get - Something inside so strong by Labi Siffre if it works.

All the best all Mike
