ira Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 For anyone who has read between the lines...my marriage is over for all purposes except the paperwork.And when you sift thru all the B.S. ...The main issue is negativity.What first attracted me to this site was seein' people of middle-age with passions.That hasn't changed for me...I want the next chapter of my life to be filled with all the wonderful things that life has has to offer..,.and NONE of the negativity...that lookin' back has plagued me in my marriage for the last 25+ years.'Cause..To quote The Beatles...When it comes to all the petty battles of everyday life...

missm Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 So does this mean that the "EDISON SUMMIT" will be discussed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollies65 Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 I hate to say this...but that paperwork part of the divorce is terrible. Usually the womans counsel will do everything he can to drag it out so he can get billable hours. At least there are no young children involved. Good Luck Ira!

hollies65 Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Also, divorce, when there are no children involved can be a great thing.I mean aside from all the expensive legal stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ira Posted April 15, 2010 Author Share Posted April 15, 2010 Steve...To quote a GREAT Hollies song...I will do everything in my power to make the "Autumn Of My Life" (Cheap reference to a great Bobby Goldsboro song)..."The Best I've Ever Had"...(Cheap reference to a "Who" song)..."Yes I Will"...(cheap reference to aforementioned Hollies song.)

blackhawkpat Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Ira:A bit of advice from someone who has done it. Do your best to resolve any issues before it gets to a judge. If you and your about to be ex can walk into court with an agreed order on paper ahead of time, it makes things go MUCH smoother, not to mention saving thousands in legal fees. Judges like that, too, and tend to be much more cordial. Best wishes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOMMY TUNES Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 That's it! I've finally figured it out. "Ira is Eric Carmen!" Come on.While Eric was away wasn't it Ira who was here posting up a storm even though he had earlier posted how he was "leaving the board".And tell me, Who here has ever seen the two of them together? Ira is Clark Kent to Eric's Superman.Now everything makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darlene Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Ira, I'm really disappointed for you about your current situation. Negativity will do it every time. I can see how it would totally wear someone with your verve for living and zest for all good things to hear whining, complaining and negative comments all the time. So sorry this happened to you, because you deserve the best. Speaking of positivity, I know it's easy to say and difficult to do, but think of it as yet another chance to start over with a life YOU want to live. Somewhere out there is someone who will appreciate you for everything you are and do. (My girlfriend Lori is a widow of several years and is looking for someone really kind and nice who will share her passions for life as well. And by the way, she's Jewish).She's met some people through a Jewish group called "Parents Without Partners" (she has a 13 year old son) and says it's not bad. I'll put you in my prayers. Good luck, and keep your chin up. You just got your independence!--Love, Dar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LobsterLvr Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Ira, it saddens me when I see other men go thru what I went thru a few years ago. My heart aches for you (in a guy kinda way). But let tell you, the negativity will never end from her side BUT it won't affect you any more. With time comes distance. Eventually you will seperate yourself and your identiy from the negstvity and will live a more enriching positve life Hang in there. It will come.Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ira Posted April 16, 2010 Author Share Posted April 16, 2010 Thank you all SO much for your support.Darlene...You've been my soulmate and shepherd in finding EC.Com from the very beginning...and how sweet to be thinkin' of "a nice Jewish girl for me".No wonder Eric and Jim and husband Herman love you.Tommy...Me and Eric ARE 2 SEPARATE JEWISH GUYS"!I was a bit heavier here...But here we are doin' our duet on what for me was "Almost Paradise" at "Weekend At Bernie's" a few years back.http://s578.photobucket.com/albums/ss226/irsper/?action=view¤t=DSC00742-1.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
