i married ex husband #1 because i was pregnant & that's what you did in 1979 in michigan... he was an abusive alcoholic who regularly knocked me around... 2 kids...
got divorced & several years later met & married #2..who was the classic peter pan when i kicked him out, he moved into his mommy's basement & lived there for 15 years.. 1 kid..
met # 3 when i applied for my current job.. he was the boss..i was wearing BOTH old wedding rings so i would never make that mistake again...
we started dating SECRETLY 6 weeks after we met, moved in together SECRETLY months later, married SECRETLY a year & 1/2 after that... 2 years later, estes (our employer) opened another terminal within driving distance, and dh told his boss @ that time that we were married & he would work @ the new terminal if it would be a problem... so there was a meeting in the home office w/president of co, vp of hr, district manager etc, and they decided since in the last 4 years there had been no complaints of favoritism or any other issue we could stay working together we were together 24/7 for years... until he was promoted to district manager...
he is the best gift god ever gave me & i am thankful for him every day... he makes me laugh, he is supportive of all my issues... (very abusive childhood) and has been a great father to my kids ... i can't imagine my life without him...
