He came over like a stray cat one day and never left. He acted like I was only lifeline he orchestrated that. So foul when he had his own but wanted to live off me plus he quit his job and turned in his car. Unbelievable! He wanted me to take care of him. Found out he had a whole family behind my back and she probably kicked him out too and he came to me. 😐 f🤬k no. I celebrated. I been free ever since! 🙌🏽🙌🏽😁😁😁😁

    I don't necessarily think it was bad for her to celebrate her divorce. What if she really was in a mentally draining marriage and situation, she left it. More power to her. We celebrate when women who leave abusive relationships. But reality is everyone didn't like the revolving door of them together not together, but fact is it takes a women more than 7 times to leave a toxic relationship. And I'm speaking facts now. Kids and money and everything comes into play now. And only she and her ex husband know how their relationship was. I wish them all the best for coparenting now because that's an entire different aspect of life.

And while the celebratory was fun my overall memory of both is just both sides of the families making everything about them. And ruined the experience for us. So our vow renewal would be for us to be able to recreate that day the way we want.

    That marriage looked like a bad idea and a horrible experience if anything on social media or reality tv is true. I do think that as parents men and women should be careful about leaving public records of things like "divorce celebrations" when you have kids involved I don't know if its helpful for your kids to lookup "hey look how happy my mom or dad were to leave each other." I think its possible to celebrate things and be discrete if you want to make sure you maintain healthy relationships but you can't tell other people want to celebrate/not celebrate.

    I’m not a fan of a breaking up of a family…I don’t think it’s anything to celebrate! You can feel free yes, but to celebrate it, I don’t know! That’s just my opinion and if you’re a Christian God HATES divorce so that in itself is telling! Also if people got to know each-other( like REALLY get to know each-other) divorce would be rare! If people actually talk to God and asked him and actually LISTEN before marrying a person divorce wouldn’t be a thing!

    Renew vows is recommiting to each other at their stage of life. The person you married may not be the same exact person at 10 years in
