hi. i'm ac123, as you can see from the subject - i love my two boys (3 and 10) but have been through one rollercoaster of a marriage that has seem more downs than ups.
she left in may 07 after one last argument and unfortunately for me, took my boys with her. all three of us were heart-broken and although we have started to live our lives apart, i think i still miss my two lovely kids and i know they miss their dad. i wish they were with me more often (currently 3/7) but it is not to be.
received my divorce proceedings today, and am just looking for help and support which i know the lovely members of wiki will hopefully assist with...

sorry to go on with myself but i havent got many friends or family here and have a lot of hurt that i have been unable to share...

hope the kids benefit one way or another when all of this has ended. the sad part...it;s only just started..

Hello ac and wellcome to the site

Its so sad to read your situation it must be very hard for you, your far from alone though and this is the right place to find some much needed support, and later if you need advice with the divorce process you will find much help.

If you feel upto talking pop in the chat room it is a friendly place full of poeple willing to listen and help and support each other.

Remember you are no longer alone you are now one of 19,000 wiki members all in the same boat some just starting out and others who are here to help and support with their knowledge and expience.

Hi ac123
Welcome to wiki, a place nobody wants to be but we're all so glad we found.
Even though we know it's going to happen something new always seems to stir up so many emotions.
So be the best dad you can be and look after yourself. Keep posting and pop into chat.Sometimes we even laugh in there. Remember that?

Dukey one l in welcome..............Yes!

Welcome to Wikivorce.

Another good avenue for getting rid of some negativity is to write a blog. It is a good way for other users to understand a little more about how you came to be here at Wikivorce. Everybody's stories are different, but the raw emotions of separation and divorce are common to us all.

Often writing it all down is very theraputic, like chucking all your emotional rubbish in a bin liner and leaving it at Wikivorce, for all to see.

Best of luck, and don't be shy - we have all been to the depths too, and understand how it feels.

Hi ac123,

Welcome, you got loads peeps around you to now help with you with the tough times and to have a smile with. The time ahead of you will be a rocky road but at the end it'll be so much better (well I keep being told, still early days for me!). Come to chat, sometimes we are serious sometimes we are daft, we have to be daft sometimes or would revert back to complete depression. Read blogs and (((((big hug)))
