Today I feel very proud of myself. I went through McDonald’s drive thru (cue scary music) and I only ordered a HUGO iced tea! No french fries (although I thought about it). I felt like I won a victory after doing that. I told my boyfriend of my crowning acheivement and he was not as thrilled about it as I. He was worrying that I should have ordered a salad because I didn’t eat. I understand his worry but he totally did not get that I was proud of not ordering the ever so tempting McDonald’s french fries. And no, I am not starving myself.
I found an online contest page where my exhusbands latest wife posted. She was talking about how they had such an expensive wedding even though people thought they should not have because it was each of their second weddings and in their 20’s they didn’t know better! HELLO! I am the second wife. The one he married in his 30’s. So far in each decade starting with his early 20’s he has had a different wife. His third wife totally knows about me because he was married to me when they started seeing each other. Funny story, I went to buy salsa at a Mexican restaurant and on my way out, noticed a man at a table trying to look invisible. I got closer and realized it was my ex. Both he and his wife were trying to hide in there plates. I chuckled to myself and just walked past them. I do have some class and would never make a scene. It was funny seeing them try to disappear. They were with two other people who were sitting on the other side of the table. I don’t know them. I guess I don’t count because my husband and I did not have children together, therefore, there is no “evidence” of our marriage of 10 years….

Hey Hun, even if there is no evidence, it is in your heart and so hard to get rid off. Men can be such jerks. I was my ex’s 2nd but sure I am not going to be his last. I am like you and alternated being still loving him and wanting him to die! Painfully!
I hate that he can still hold a part of my heart when he did nothing to deserve it.
You are doing so great with you willpower. You are an inspiration to me.
Keep up the good work.

It seems like so often if I come home with a victory like yours, no one is as excited as I am about it (cue the violins, right?). Now sometimes I hold back and keep the joy for myself just because of that very reason. You did wonderfully at McDonald’s - hope you patted yourself on the back.

Hmm.. it seems like him with the problem. If I were his current wife, I might be asking myself why the first two didn’t work, and might stop to note he was the only factor that stayed the same in both! You should be glad to be rid of him!
