Breakup of Marriage Painful at Any Age

juneh you didn't get a response on this, so I'm going to read it next. But I just want to announce to Gransnet that as of yesterday morning, I am FREEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now my question is, am I the only Gransnetter to get my divorce under French law?

Yes the 'doing' of it was painful, I am 67 and was married to that man for 29 years and 11 months. I was a faithful, supportive and diligent wife and partner. But hell hath no fury like a woman scorned! I walked out of that courtroom yesterday and it was as if I had opened a huge five barred gate and was looking at a vast sunlit landscape ahead of me.

So off I go to explore!

The very best of wishes to you, specki. It'll have been a hard-won battle. Congratulations on the start of your new life.

Best wishesspecki First day of the rest of your life get out there and enjoy & more as you are in the best place aren't you ?

Hi specki and glad that you're feeling relief that the deed is done. How come the divorce was under French law? I'm intrigued.

DD's was under Alderney law. Very male orientated

Enjoy that euphoric feeling of liberation, specki. It lasts a lot longer than honeymoons ever did!

Happy exploring specki. The world is your oyster and all the very best wishes for the future. You're worth it. & . X

Good for you specki. Three years after the end of my marriage, I still feel relief that he isn't sitting at the kitchen table when I come down in the morning

Well done specki', you did it!

Specki and/or

At last Speckie. Glad you feel so relieved now -- another lunch to celebrate in Bergerac? X x

Wishing you all the best for your new future.

Well done Speckie! Enjoy your new life!

Brilliant news specki. So pleased for you. Enjoy the rest of your life and come to the next Derby/Leics meetup, if you can!!

for speckie, Congratulations. I am in my 2nd, and I feel very lucky to say, happy marriage. I was divorced after 11 years of marriage to my first husband. I put on half a stone within weeks. I found myself again, started to do things I loved with real enthusiasm, I felt free like you do Speckie, it was a glorious feeling - here's wishing the same for you - or even better.

Well done speckie,there's nothing like that feeling of freedom, I still rejoice after 22 years!

Thank you all so much..tthe answer to why i got my divorce under french law is that after living in a foreign country for over 10 years you lose your British domicile and are therefore required to use the french system which is quicker and cheaper..win win!

speckie Well done that woman! Good Luck! Now you deserve a break.

Well done specki enjoy the freedom

Well done specki

Well done.Lucky you!!
