I have been on a few dates and all of them have been taller and bigger then my ex... hee hee... not that I need anyone to beat him up, but it's nice to know they could. Shoot... he did put in the counter petition that I'm not allowed to cause him bodily harm... wuss... I used to pinch his nipples, but that's as violent as I got
Well dcrim... you have one with a cord... you'll be ok
I added a album to my profile titled "the past" I really have no emotions looking at those pictures... so that's a good sign... what are you supposed to do with wedding pictures?
save the wedding photos. put them in storage, in a closet.
just don't throw them out, because that's like throwing out a part of your life, part of who you are.
your marriage certainly was not all bad, and i'm sure you made a beautiful bride (as all women do) and i'm sure your ex looks dashing (as we all try to look) and i'm sure it was a wondeerful day (except for that one faux pas).
Blondeeee....you're in OP/Olathe right? Guess what? I'm right up the road from you in Mission. Guess what else? We have the exact same court date w/my H is....25th of June....so know when you're there that there's someone else on this board going through the same thing with ya same date, same time, and presumably we'll be in the same court house...good old JoCo. I have yet to reach the hate stage. I'm still in the I can't understand why this is happening stage but our situations I think although similar differ too.
....but mymy your husband must be a piece of work because he propelled you from 'why can't i hate him' to 'does anybody know how to hire a hit man' in record time.[/QUOTE]
Oh wow My old house...sniff sniff... was in Olathe. Is your judge James Vano?? I looked him up... couldn't really find anything...lol. Well I will see you at court... I wish you the best!! Let's hope it's not too painful... we'll get through this.

Speaking of wedding pics (I don't have formal ones because we JOP'd it because the H was going into the service at the time) and after that never had a formal ceremony.
Anyway...my question is what do you do w/the jewelry? I am no where near being able to let my rings go. Don't know if I'll ever get to that point. BUT if I do how do I go about getting what its worth out of it? My band is .5 c white gold w/channel set princess cut diamonds and my engagement ring is 1.5c w/past present future princess cuts and 4 channel set princess cuts on each side. My god I love my ring it's abosolutely everything I wanted. I can't bear to part w/it now not only because it's a gorgeous set but also it holds so much love and memories of my H and I and the good times when we BOTH were in love. Ugh!
I've taken my ring to one jewelry store and they didn't offer me much, I personally don't like looking at my ring anymore so I just want to trade it in for something I will wear. But you are going through a tough time right now, so you should just put them in a box until you feel you are ready to do something with them... don't do anything now, wait till you feel ready. You could always get the stones remounted into another ring or necklace... but just take your time, you will get through this and it will get better You will always have your memories, keep the good ones and get rid of the bad ones
how about make it ino a necklace for your mother? My wife found a 1K Diamond on the ground, worth a couple of grand, we placed it on a necklace and gave it to her mother to have, the only condition was when she died, she willed it over to our daughter.
Maybe you can do the same make a nice necklace for your mother and have her give it to your daughter when you have one in the future.
OR even give it to charity, do something good with it.
Thank you!!! I think he's a fool too...life goes on and I don't have to deal with him anymore- yay 15 days until court... and it will be all over.
GA- I like your ideas of what to do with the ring... thanks

Rings can be altered to be a cool pendant... or chopped up to make some earrings, depending on the design...
it can be very refreshing emotionally to rework them into something else.
I've done it.... and it felt good.
I also had a tattoo redone into something new and fresh...
to symbolize a new beginning in my life. I ended up going from controlling selfish jerk to a really great guy.
Dream it, believe it and go for it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
