[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Getting divorced was the best thing I've ever done. It brought me a new life and lots of happiness.

People say it's difficult, and parts of it are indeed difficult. But if you're in a bad marriage, the most difficult thing is the year BEFORE the divorce. Once the decision to divorce is made, things usually get better. And better.

I agree with this. My affair partner and I are now married, and are very happy. 
I didn't regret my divorce for a second. [/quote]

Did you have kids with your ex? Did your affair partner? How long have you guys been together?

Just curious - I have never known anyone who had an affair who stayed together. First H had an affair but it was clearly with someone he wasn't intending to marry (we did divorce, but not really because of that). Ultimately first h was not the marrying type and never remarried. I was though and did. I don't know that we are "very happy" but I'll settle for mildly happy. First divorce taught me to have other outlets aside from marriage to fulfill needs. DH is much happier I don't expect him to be my everything. [/quote]

No kids with the ex, but I DH and I now have a child. We've been together for 6 years.

I just realized that this is the 50 and over forum, which I'm not.

There was also a tread about this topic on the Relationship forum a month or two ago. It was called "Would you ever do it again?" or something to that effect. [/quote]
