Karen's Story

Who am I? Well, I like to think I still hold true to a lot of the same qualities and values that I had in high school. Aw, come on, I had some values in high school.Shortly after high school graduation, I got engaged, became pregnant and got married, all in that order. Was not exactly what I had planned, but I have a wonderful 24 year old son, my proudest accomplishment to this day! The marriage didn't last very long, but when you are young and don't know whatyou are doing, things tend to turn sour. Got married again, about 4 years later to a great guy, we were married almost 9 years, no children. One day, we were talking and decided that we really no longer had nothing in common and really had grown apart-just didn't like each other anymore. So, yes, once again, divorce number 2... Starting to see a pattern here, aren't you? I stayed single for almost 10 years and one day was on Yahoo Personals and came across this ad and just felt like I should respond. He, his name was Michael, called me that night, I remember the details so clearly because I was on the way to a Travis Tritt concert, we talked briefly and he said he would call me that Sunday and maybe he could drive into Danville and meet me f/dinner. I knew when I heard his voice that something was different about him, I just knew. Well, he did call, we did have dinner and practically were inseperable for the next couple of months. He was different from anyone I had ever known and I knew I loved him, long before I ever told him. Right before Christmas he got down on one knee and proposed to me. Oh, God How I loved this man... We got married at the Justice of the Peace in Roxboro and also had a wedding in Mississippi, given to us by his mother(that is where he is from). So we actually go married twice!!! Things were wonderful for so long, some things happened, I was a night auditor...Expand for more
at a major hotel chain and I got robbed and beaten one night at work and almost raped and suffered severe emotional trauma,,, Michael hated his job more and more each day, he hated it as he went to work and he hated it when he came home and he took it out on me and I already was a basket case. Things just got really shakey,,, so one day after work late in Sept '09 he came home from work and said he was goig to talk to a lawyer about a separation and walked out the door. Just left me standing there. He came home later and said I had 60 days to vacate the property. Feb '10 would have been 7 years for us and we couldn't quite make it.Things just got to be too much... So now I'm living back in Danville and having more bad days than good because I really thought he was the one and now I know he is not. I miss him and I miss us. I guess I have truly shared more that the expected and told you more than you ever wanted to know. But one thing I have learned while struggling thru this, I know that God has a plan for me and will send me someone when he thinks it is the right time, so there is no need in me trying to rush things. I guess being alone is not so bad after all... Thank you for reading my story. I always wanted to be a vet when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a great idea. As it turns out, they were wrong. If I'm going to work somewhere, I need to have Wite-out, paper clips, and cell phone to be able to deal with the day-to-day. The one person from my past who I'd most like to see again is Stephanie Lawson, because she was my best friend in high school. My kitty cat Trixie,aka, Doodlebug a little Chocolate a lot of Love If I could improve my home, I'd remodel kitchen and add on a deck. My dream home would be a log cabin. Anything is possible,,, follow through with your plans,,, stick with it,,, NEVER SAY NEVER
