My confession is that I took our home phone off the hook during the week to prevent my ex from talking to our children. This was before answering machines and cell phones. My children have no idea that their father probably did try to call them and that I am the reason they did not talk to him.  My ex has passed and I deeply regret what I did.   I am too humiliated to tell my adult children the truth.

I wanted to divorce my husband. He was involved in a lawsuit and was receiving a settlement of $500,000.   After the paperwork was completed for the lawsuit I filed for divorce. I was entitled to half of all assets acquired during the marriage-why would I not take the money. Cha-ching!!!
