Introducing myself

Hi all, daunting, scary, emotional yet liberating to be divorcing my stbx!
Had been togther with my stbx from the age of 17 for 14 years and I have 3 chldren, 1, 3 and 9 years old. Kicked him out when I was 5 months pregnant, everyone has a 'last time' don't they and I do not know where I got the strength from but thank god I did.
No drink, drugs, other women etc just been leading an unhappy, manipulative, one sided life for years and years. I say 6 years unhappy, 2 years to say it out loud!
I have moved house, although he is on my mortgage, (sorting this out) he has a new house too and threatening for more money. He has my children 2 nights a month, every other weekend, which is hard on my 9 year old son. He is very verbal and has told a lot of lies and a lot of so called friends have stopped talking to me.
I left my husband 19 months ago and after starting my journey to find myself again, I could not be more happier. I have also met a wonderful MAN that is a MAN and not a boy who is honest, truthful, caring, considerate, loving etc etc, everything I am not use to.
I am waiting for the financials to be sorted out and the absolute to come through but there is nothing I can do about all of this now, just gotta sit back and wait! If and when I have to fight, you can betcha I will.
Sometimes I sit here thinking I had a lucky escape and the rest of the time I cry myself to sleep.
