Never been better. I wake up every morning like
I heard this one time and it stuck with me, it literally happened to me
"In a divorce, one party wants out and the other wants to get even."
I wanted out. She got even by refusing to cooperate with the divorce in any way.
What should have been the easiest divorce on earth (no kids, no property) turned out to be a 2 year ordeal
I was living in VA at the time and the law there is if both parties agree you separate physically for 6 months then sign the decree and KIM
But because she didn't agree, I had to wait a year, then hire a lawyer to serve her papers
then go to court (she didn't show) and bring two witnesses to state that I was not reconciling and had been physically separated for a year
then wait for the wheels of the bureaucracy to move my case along
Finally the judge signed the decree on her behalf and I was free
Never spoke to her again
3 years later, she had the audacity to send a "hey big head" email
I did reply back on some "this is a surprise. Last memory I have of you is you skipping the court date and refusing to sign the divorce papers. Can I help you?"
she replied back with some born again Christian babble
"It's against my religion, nothing to do with you, marriage is until death, blah blah blah"
My reaction:
Left her on read
My divorce was finalized Dec. 2019. Notice it was right before the pandemic.
Since then:
Went dolo monk mode for a couple of months (aka had no roster and was rusty af).
Bought and sold a crib, moved to a downtown condo
Started WFH making 6 figs
Got my game sea legs back and met a couple of bust downs
Cavorted for around 3 months with them, on some recently divorced come through check out my view get the pipe then leave shyt
Met my new girl on a totally random last thing on my mind shyt
Cut off the FWBs
Been exclusive with my girl since early December
We're now at the "nicknames and leave a toothbrush at each other's place" stage
The thing about my divorce is there was no reason for her to be that petty
I didn't cheat on her, I didn't beat her
Our personalities and worldview clashed in a big way, I couldn't see myself spending my life with someone I don't get along with so I jetted
She was just on some fukk you for divorcing me shyt
Whatever, I wish her the best of luck in all her future endeavors
