I may have just set a record for the world's shortest engagement.
Did another attempt at discussing the issues that were bothering me last night. He refused to give me a time-frame for getting a divorce (said he had one in mind but he wasn't going to tell me.) Which I interpreted as there is no time-frame. I tried to discuss a couple other issues, and he went into round-about mode. You know, where they discuss everything but the issue at hand to try to distract you. Then he just flat refused to discuss things any further. From there the conversation deteriorated and he ended by hanging up on me.
So it's back to just me and the girls. Although I expect things to get "interesting" for a while. He told me stories of getting cut off in traffic, copying the car's license, tracing it, and then harassing the driver. I expect him to do the same (or worse) to me. Sigh. Time to update my will and put the Sheriff on speed-dial.
I think I'm going to give up on men altogether. The chances of me finding a decent, non-violent, rational man who wants to live in a fixer-upper on a small farm in the backwoods of Kentucky, loves kids and animals, and is UNmarried to someone else, are somewhere between me hitting the big lottery and Congress actually balancing the budget. Besides, anything they can do, we can do better. Right, girls?

Right!!! I am so glad you are out of this one - it was scary. I almost left a comment last time, but deleted it after I wrote it. One thing I remember writing was that when I read your post, the hair all over my body stood up on end. I think you are trying too hard. Just relax and live your life day to day. I have a hunch that when the time is right someone will appear, and probably from an unexpected perhaps boring direction. Did you get the girls' dresses made? During your month-long silence, I thought you were planting your garden, and I worried about you because of too much rain.
Good Gosh Woman! That sounds like a whole bundle of trouble and a good near miss.
Hugs, Im sorta feeling you on this. Different set of parameters but the same end result feeling.
