Hi Ladies!!! How are you all? Well, it's time to let the truth be told. Pat and I cancelled our wedding. It happened on Christmas Eve. Yes, it took me a while to spill the beans. I just wanted to make sure that I was OK before posting. I wasn't too sure I was even going to say anything...I just didn't want to keep lying to those kind girls that FM'd me.
It's a long story but in the end, Pat and I wanted 2 very different things out of life. As far as a career, raising a family, location, finances and a few other things. We will try to remain friends because in the end...we obviously really care about eachother but I will be the first to admit that it has been hard.
Don't want to get too personal or throw any dirt on his name because he is a good man...just not for me as a husband. Life takes it's turns and things happen. It's what we make out of the plates we are served that show what type of person we are. I like to think of myself as a strong person so that is exactly what I have been...Strong!
To those girls that I told in January...thank you for your kind words of support, your welcoming words and your secrecy. I am eternally grateful!
Instead of saying that you are sorry for my situation...just welcome me back and let's plan all of your beautiful weddings!!!! My day will come and I am comforted in knowing that I have all of you to help join me when the time does come.
I Love You Girls with All My Heart and You Have All Truly Been Missed!!!!!!!!

I got teary when I read this. Not because I felt bad for you, but because I really admire the strength and positivity of your spirit. It's also nice to hear how much respect and care you still have for Pat. I wish you the best in every thing!

I really admire you for making such a difficult decision. (I went through a similar situation 3 yrs ago). Although tough at the time, in the long run, I bet you know in your heart this is the best outcome. Your strength and honesty are admirable!

I truly believe that everything happens for a reason. I can think of a couple of examples where my girlfriends ended very long and serious relationships only to find their true soulmate soon afterwards.
I admire you for your strength and wisdom! Welcome back on the boards!
