life changes


As soon as my son left for Texas, my wife announced that she wants a divorce. She is 14 years younger than me and after 32 years of raising a family, she wants to be free and have a new life.
I can't blame her for that, but this is pretty cold really..I have health problems which will become more serious as time goes on, and I think she doesn't want to be tied down to it.

I don't have any family, so I will be alone to face all that and I don't have a vehicle either. So, I will have to live on S.S...lot's of luck saving enough to buy a car! I think there may be a local service to shuttle the handicapped and old folks around.

John

John, I really don't know what to say other than to echo Brandon and Ted's sentiments. I am sorry to hear this.

Does it ever!

I'm shocked. People's values seem to be in the wrong place these days. And same here John if there is anything I can do, do not hesitate.

John if there can be an up side to this I suppose it would be that feminism (jeez I hate that word) can now work in a man's favor.

She is working and you are not, "spousal support".

Re: life changes


Hi Gents - I have rented a (very) small apartment. It's half of a 65 ft. singlewide trailer converted to 2 effiencies. $450/mo. includes elect./garbage/water and cable. I will look into cable internet service, but may not have it the first month due to move in costs. So, if I disappear..."I shall return"

Thanks to all for your words of encouragement; I couldn't do without you guys! emoticon
