    Congrats girl, next time I have a glass of wine I'll raise one to you!

    No Scarlet letter D's here

  • Tear along the dotted line

    I used to like those double-barreled last names, hers first, then a hyphen, then his. When the marriage broke up, you could neatly tear off the last name and throw it away.

  • Marriage is ALWAYS

    about selfish interests. No one gets married for altruistic reasons. They are trying to get what they want.

  • @ violet and one of the Anonymous

    Violet, I specifically said that where abuse is involved, the sentiment that "it takes two to screw it up" does NOT apply. Obviously, in your situation, it does not represent your own personal failure. My apologies if that was not clear.

    To Anonymous whose letter was titled "Not ld (sic) fashioned at all"

    You know that's a disingenous strawman argument. There's a difference between "expressing a little relief" and popping a bottle of champagne and exclaiming your joy to all within the sound of your voice.

    It's the celebratory aspect I'm uncomfortable with, not the expression of relief.

    But you've stopped reading already, because somewhow the fact that I work in an office makes me inferior to you.
