    Sad to hear that mate.

    Chin up, and don't be afraid to sing out if you need a chat.

    Life's tough, but you're tougher. Stay strong, and like Dave says, many here can support if you need it.

    I know where you're at mate. (mine was 29 years too )

    As others have said, it's important to stay in touch with people and TALK to them. Easy to say now, but it does get better.

    Chin up

    Commiserations from me too Wardy.As someone who's been there,albeit in smaller doses than 29 years, advice is to take it easy, don't do anything rash, the pain will pass with time.

    Just want to say a HUGE thankyou to everyone. It will never cease to amaze me how a forum such as this one works. From people I've never had the opportunity to meet face to face to those who've got to know me a bit. I'll work through it all in time and I really do wish the very best for Vicki. I've been a very lucky bloke to have had her in my life now for a bit over 30 years.
    Your thoughts are very much appreciated.
    Hope we can get to catch up on a track somewhere soon.

    Sorry to hear. Otherwise as the rest have said. Think and then head to where you want to be.

    Sorry to hear mate. Only bumped into you a couple of times but enjoyed the company of you both together... I guess we will just have to do that individually now. If you can, tell Vicki we were sorry to hear for both of you.

    Anyway, come out for a drive to Wombat next weekend and start clearing your head. My Mrs and Kids are staying home this time, so maybe we can get into some decent boy-talk... we had two family&friend funerals last week, I could do with a decent session too.

    Good Luck, Dave, Jo and kids.
    Hoo-Roo,

    Dave.

    The divorce process is very stressful and traumatic, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel and it just gets bigger and brighter as time rolls on.

    Just keep this thought in mind. It's what sustained me through my divorce after 19 married years:

    Do you know why divorce is so expensive?
    BECAUSE IT'S WORTH IT.

    thanks Dave, but I'm already heading up to somewhere around Walhalla for the long w/e.
    I do appreciate your thoughts though, thankyou

    It is sad ,but it doesn't have to be vengeful, lawyers turn it into a cat fight. These things can be settled with less stress and hatred and resulting in a cheaper settlement. After years of love and affection for one another and then lawyers get in your ears and turn it into a war.
    Not having gone through it I can't honestly fathom what you might be feeling.
    It was only the other day I was talking to a guy in a shop, he had been married 49years, he went to a school reunion with his wife and his wife left him for an old heart throb from her school days.
    Wardy I hope things improve for you.
    cheers mate,
