What a story… that is truly awful stuff WSC. You deserve so much more.

I hope she makes it up to you sincerely, but there’s no need to count her as a friend after that.

heartHope everything gets back to normal soon

I’m really sorry to hear about that William. Family dramas in the middle of romantic occurances are always a messy business, and I hope you two will patch things up and get back on track. I’m not here to give advice or anything, but I do hope you will come out feeling better and whole.

I’ve learned the university I attended is moving to the city. From a beautiful expansive campus with grass, great lecture theatres and library, to a skyscraper. It’s a downgrade to me, and makes me feel sad the current (soon to be former) campus will likely turn into a housing development. This is the place I became a big Beatles fan, walking the grounds during the day and night. It was a great environment for learning and creativity. It’s depressing when things from our past are no more. a-hard-days-night-paul-10

I went to a university in a big city and it was cool because the city was the campus. Could get anywhere you wanted easily. Most colleges are in the middle of nowhere and depressing if you want to go anywhere but don’t drive.

I’m sorry to hear about that, WSC

Somebody who lets another man into their kids’ lives so quickly doesn’t sound like somebody who makes good decisions, and her essentially ghosting you like that wasn’t fair to you or the kids. I think it’s probably best to take it as a learning experience and move on. Some people constantly have drama in their lives and it’s stressful to be around that. You deserve better.

Thanks for all the well wishes. It’s weird that not too long ago I was planning on sharing happy news about the engagement.  I was mainly waiting till the divorce ended before I spilled the beans, but that’s sort of irrelevant now.

They sort of just went along with the whole thing.  I think they worried about me a little bit, but things were all good till the breakup.

Ghosting is a bit of understatement, but yeah thanks.  Yeah I got pretty close with the kids, whichames me worry that this whole thing will hurt them.  I just remember after we got back together after the “space”, I had to peel the 3 year old off of me because she clung so tight to me telling me how much she missed me.

A positive is I made more of an impact on them, than they did on me.  I turned them into Beatles fanatics, and we got the kids yellow submarine sippy cups.  That part is good, but it’s also good because most of my self identity was inract and not tarnished after the breakup.

 

Also I started to pull out money from my pay check and put it away to help pay off her credit card debt.  It was only $300 because the breakup was shortly after I began, but none of it was spent on her debt and most of it got spent today on my debt…of Beatles music I’ve neglected to buy due to the other responsibilities I was taking on.

Holy houses @William Shears Campbell I thought you were pulling our collective leg when you posted about getting a divorce previously. I particularly worry about the kids… I wonder if her erratic behavior was due to pressure from her ex or family… it seems like a crap situation all round.

I hope you find someone you can be an excellent husband to and father for. (if that makes sense. I’ve run out of brain cells) You deserve it. heartheartheart

I fine all that very odd WSC, not sure what to say. 

The obvious kind of thing is suppose it’s better you’re out before it went further but that’s too simple for all those involved. 
Hope you’re doing ok after it’s all done. I hope the kids and the lady are too. All very messed up with no real good from it all.

I’m recovering from surgery. I guess it’s nice to have one thing behind me. Moving to an apartment, finding a job and getting a divorce are next. I’m recovering in my wife’s old room at her father’s house, which is a bit sad. We’ve been watching Marvel universe movies.

A sign of everything going more smoothly for you, I think.

I’m also taking my SATs again this weekend and getting my wisdom teeth out and a couple of weeks so that’s fun /s. 

Other than that nothing else is going on besides marching band and such and stressing about politics and the state of my country 24/7 ;-; I’ve missed the beatlesbible so much, though, and I’m gonna make an effort to be on here a bit more since I’ve been gone for *gasp* months.

I wasn’t the one getting the divorce, it was her from her ex.

It was most likely built up pressure from her family.  I highly doubt it had anything to do with her ex.  He was abusive and she despises him.

Yeah, honestly it’s probably better that I didn’t end up with the situation.  I was fine with it while I was with her, but looking in from the outside, I don’t think I’d ever want to go back, even if she were to come back to me.

Wow, that’s a wild story. I’m sorry that it didn’t turn out the way you’d hoped, WSC, but hopefully it will be for the best. Every cloud a silver lining and all that.

In my news, my flatmate has tested positive for COVID-19 after developing systems, so it’s now two weeks or more of isolation for us. Bit nerve wracking too, since I’m technically high risk due to my asthma.

Same about the common app! College essays are rough >.< I’ve written like six already and it’s incredibly draining

You should definitely ask for your letters right away if you haven’t done so already so they have enough time to write you letter. (College Counselor Fiddy will see you now.)

I’m also taking my SATs again this weekend and getting my wisdom teeth out and a couple of weeks so that’s fun /s. 

Oh dear… good luck on the SATs and may your pain be brief and your parents’ video recording devices be malfunctioning during the time after your surgery.
