Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"

My ex and I have been divorced 15 yrs. He hasn't changed. Best and hardest decision I ever made. My thoughts are with you and your daughter. The road ahead may not be easy, but my belief is that it will be easier than where you were. Hang tight and stay with us. Originally Posted by i.m.cheap

I second that. I KNOW how hard it is, I had to do it too. I'm proud of you, girl! Now things will just keep getting better and better for you. Originally Posted by Josephhgoins

It takes a strong person to stay in a relationship where they are not loved but an even stronger person to make the right (educated) decision to leave and actually follow through.
Congrats on your decision. *hugs*2012: The Year Of The Purge!
