Default Dreams Come True

Ten years ago I left my ex. My credit was crap, my kids hated me, I drove a car that barely went 30 mph, it was the pits. The only thing I had was a box of clothes. My ex is bipolar. The sad thing that I missed was spending more time with my girls while they were going through their younger teenaged years. Well, time heals. I can't get back the years that I lost, but have the best bond I have had with my girls in years. I can't believe my kids turned out great even dealing with their mother. My youngest is in school to get her PHD, my oldest is getting married this year and I finally bought the bike I have always wanted. Life is good finally after 16 years of a bad marriage and 10 to get my life back. I'm a middle aged man now. I feel younger than I have in years. All I got to say is don't give up hope. Everything is going to be just fine!


Ride safe, brothers and sisters!~

Good for you. [sm=smiley20.gif]

I went through much the same 15 years ago. Right now I'm happily married and my four kids are doing well. Thank God

Im going through something much the same. The only thing that makes me happy is riding. You might have just given me the strength to do the same.

Glad to hear your life is turning around.......I had a rough start in my early twenties but never gave up and it paid off. Now I'm married to my second wife almost 20 years and have 3 great kids..nice home...and a black lowrider........you are so right about never giving up hope.

It may take time, but NEVER give up! I just wished I had those years back.

Great to hear, when life hits you with bumps, all you can do is say F it and drive on. Great to see your daughters are doing well, sister has same problem as your ex and her 3 are turning out well also. Enjoy the new bike and ride safe buddy.

I know all about bipolar ex's. It's quite a roller coaster ride.
Glad things worked out. I was in the same boat 5 years ago,
got my credit back in pretty good shape, met and married a
normal one. Well.....pretty normal. LOL And I'm back on a
bike. Life can be good.......
