... in response to Ahh Ooh . . ., posted by yc on Jan 10, 2002Only thing is... the former ex actually grew up and apologized to her and her.. 15 years later for being such an immature "D-Head" all of his prior years.
I don't hold any old guilt for my actions, the least that I did, was provide safe harbor for someone that was indeed in big trouble, under fear of "deportation". (ya shoulda seen the knife holes in the bathroom door and the bruises...) Shortly afterwards, she became an american citizen, along with her daughter, my oldest step-daughter, who is now 28.
And I hear that once you're divorced, that step-kids aren't step-kids anymore? Yeah right.
Mine is the closest to me, and we've been divorced for 4 years now, following a separation that was about 4 years also.
I fell on a sword, partly for my own emotional gain, and to be a hero to her.
Well, the sword worked.
God works in mysterious ways.
I wouldn't change anything.
