i’m a looser
Tuesday, May 16th, 2006i am the looser in my upcoming divorce. i gave up so much. so much to support his career. BIG FAT MISTAKE. i will never again move for a guy.
i gave up:
- having family close by
- a five year relationship with my sales accounts
- gave up leverage with those sales accounts
- relationship with my sales manager
- comfort of understanding the dynamics of the sales territory
- a high performing territory that took five years to build
- co-workers with whom i grew up with in the industry
- friends with whom i grew up with
- being able to attend all the family parties
- being able to see my niece and nephew on the weekends whenever i feel like it
- being able to help my sister with the kids whenever she needs help
- being able to bond with other extended family members
- being able to spend time with friends when in LA because now i have to see family. friends are more distant
- access to any warm beaches
- relationships with all the restaurant managers and chefs of the restaurants in and around beverly hills
- local comfort
what he gained:
- closer to his family
- my pushing him to spend more time with them so they have a better relationship = better understanding of his parents
- the support from me and the opportunity to accept an executive development program position at a fortune 10 company.
- the opportunity to find his calling so that he can succeed and feel fulfilled
- promotions
- closer to his friends
what i will have after the divorce:
- depression
- 1/2 the assets - cash, investments, investment prop, stocks, primary residence etc.
- no job = no credit (long story, but it has to do with no support from him)
- no car (had to give back my company car)
- can’t roll $$$ over into a house = no job = no credit line = no home ownership
- have to pay cash for car = no job = no credit line
- have to pay cash for any business that i want to start = no job = no credit line
- no job = no opportunity or choice to leverage my assets or not
- will have to move back in with my parents. I’M A FUCK’N ADULT
- lower credit card line
- no more hilton honors points/miles
- no longer living in the SF-bay area = loose recently made friends = loose lovely SF weather = loose nice commute and easier traffic patterns
- INDEPENDENCE AND NO OVERBEARING PERSON IN MY LIFE
what he will have after the divorce
- 2006 bmw 330xi
- 1/2 the assets - cash, investments, investment prop, stocks, primary residence etc.
- an excellent career that he excels in and feels fulfilled in
- job = credit line = house
- job = credit line = opportunity to leverage his $$$
- one credit line of over $ xx,000 and another with a line of credit over $ xx,000 (i used the cards for work to gain miles so the companies kept increasing credit line)
- a whole FUCK’N lot of hilton honors points/miles
- living in the SF-bay area = close to new and old friends = lovely SF weather = nice commute and easier traffic patterns
- not having to live with his parents
- home ownership
- LONELINESS and NO MORE me.
