Ok...I'll wade in. I voted "SST."
Having ended my marriage circa 6 mos. ago, I can only mention what being solo has gotten me so far:
1. A new house done the way I wanted.
2. All brand new furniture that I chose according to MY taste.
3. A big a$$ed plasma TV, home theater and a kick-a$$ stereo system.
4. A brand new Alienware ALX fully loaded.
5. A healthy and happy parrot.
6. A dedicated hobby room, not a table in the basement.
7. The freedom to work on my hobbies when and as long as I want to without hearing "I'm bored."
8. The freedom to watch DVD's all weekend if I want without hearing "I'm bored."
9. The option to stay in and cook as opposed to having to constantly dine out at the newest trendy spot "someone at work was talking about."
10. Freedom period.
11. Peace and quiet.
12. No more worried calls from friends saying "Dude, you've gotta get out of that situation, it's killing you!"
13. Comments from the same friends like "Dude, you're looking better than you have in long time!"
14. The ability to go out with friends without being accused of having an affair upon my return home.
15. No more pi$$ing money away on useless trips to marital counselling.
16. HAPPINESS!
You know you're in a no-win situation when the marriage counsellor tells you in private "You need to get your exit strategy in order if you haven't done so already. You need to get out of this and move on."
Yeah...I'll take SST. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
