Well, to update my coming up freedom, the wife and I are seperating. I will be leaving home on the weekend of the 14 Oct.
I will be gone away from the house for about six months, and after that I will be able to move back in (she is giving me the house…though it will be mostly bare when she leaves, because most of the stuff is ‘hers’, gifts and such)
I will move in with my brother and mother for a while, so I don’t know when I’ll be able to get back on the computer(which will also be mine…she is taking our old one, a PB 386), hopefully she will let me use the computer once a week to check my e-mail and stuff, and chat a little with my friends on-line. Hopefully I can use my brother’s computer once in a while, if he let’s me.
So this is my farewell for a while, but as a famous person once said: “I WILL BE BACK.”
Later fellow dopers!
Also, if any of you single female dopers need a date, I am available!!! :):):):)
You will find a better life, I promise. It sounds like you have been trying to make things work for a very long time. Sometimes it just isn’t there, no matter how hard you try. I am sorry you are hurting.
Good luck pipefitter. The dating scene has changed more than you can ever imagine. Plase be careful and take your time. I recall from your earlier thread on your separation that you feel you and your wife married on the rebound. Take your time, take plenty of time. As many single Dopers can tell you it’s not easy to ‘date’. The world looks wide open to you right now, but don’t date for a while. Give yourself a chance to make the major adjustments that separation and divorce bring. Another relationship right now is the last thing you need.
I want to thank some of you for the supportive words. I don’t plan on getting to the dating scene right away, don’t want to be one of those ‘rebound’ people.
My wife already has asked me to find out if a close friend wants to go out, but I still think I’ll wait (she says she wants me to go out again).
Pipe, my dear. As I’ve been telling you in chat, you hang in there, and I’m here for you, anytime you need me. You’re good people, and don’t let that ‘person’ tell you any different. You’ll be in my prayers, as always, dear friend. You deserve better than this.
Take care, my friend. Be well, and keep in touch. You have my phone number too. Use it now and then.
Thank you purplebear, I’ll try and keep in touch with you by both snail mail, e-mail(when I can get to a library), and phone.

And don’t everyone worry about me, I am a survivor, and I will get through this, and I’m sure this time away from home will go fast.
You had better, dear! I’ll look forward to each from you. I’m glad to see you haven’t lost your sense of humor. And, at least you’ll get to spend more time with your mom and brother than you have in some time.
Is that a good thing?
I’m sorry I didn’t get up to chat with you this morning, I was just too tired to. I know you understand. So, don’t worry, I am taking care of myself as well. Take care, and keep in touch.
Thanks for the hugs geobabe, I need as many as I possibly can!
Purplebear, what can I say my dear friend, you are always there for me, you are a sweet and caring person (and very nice looking also)and I thank you so very much. I’ll miss chatting with you on a regular basis.
