Oh Moni, sorry to hear it didn't work out, but best to find out sooner than later. Wishing you the best, Kathy G in MI

Moni, I'm sorry you were disappointed. And thank you for sharing the explanation, I hope you didn't feel pressured by any of us - including me. I think I speak for everyone when I say we are only concerned about your happiness. I too am glad you took steps when you did, if it wasn't working out as you'd planned, better now than later. We're cheering for you, wishing only good things for you.

I know you will be right where you need to be doing exactly what you want to do. Best of luck to you with the next step. The best is yet to come!

Thank you for sharing this. You know that we all love and care for you....and, you are one wonderful gal! Ditto....the best is yet to come!

Moni, that's a sad story, however, no one is going to fault you for trying. I'm sure that at the outset, it appeared like a very good thing, and it must have been so sad when things fell apart. Here's hoping that you will find a new a new life and happiness for yourself.

I am impressed with your ability to know this situation wasn't right for you and you had the fortitude to leave. Be proud of yourself.

Well, think of the grand adventure you had and you took a chance. It could have been the other way and things could have been wonderful and you would have never known had you not tried. I loved living in Florida so you got to experience that for a while...you only live once! Good luck with the house hunting.

Moni - Good for you for not settling for that 50/50. It should be far different from that. Thank you for sharing that very personal information. I know your head is held high, as it should be - keep on keepin' on.

I'm glad you stood your ground and got out of there. Oklahoma is a better place with you home again.

I'm glad to hear your well and on your way to having another adventure...your life is all about new beginnings. Keep us posted. Your last house blossomed under your care, I can't wait to see your new place!

I think it is great that you seized the opportunity when it seemed right. Sorry things did not work out for you, and glad you are back with family and friends.

So nice of you to check back in for those who did not follow your story.

I agree with Tackykat,I give you so much credit for seizing the moment and just going with it. You will forever not be in doubt of a path not taken.

Here's to moving forward and to even grater adventures ahead.

One of my DH's favorite sayings is, "Take what you want and pay for it." (Every choice in life has consequences.)

When the consequences outweigh the benefits, you are fortunate if you can reverse course without paying even more.

I'm very sorry for your disappointment. Best of luck going forward, Moni!

I am in complete agreement with what everyone has said. We wish you only the best.

I respect those that take action! It could have turned out great, it didn't, now you know. Onwards and upwards!

Hugs for you, Moni!

You did the right thing, no shame at all. Nothing ventured, nothing gained and you set a great example.

Glad to hear that you were smart enough to leave that situation and get back to your family. You were strong enough not to stay in a relationship not right for you just because you sold your house and moved a long distance. Good for you. I hope you can find a place and move on smoothly.

Now you must sally forth. Cheers.

This happened to a friend of mine this past year. Caused a lot of turmoil but now she and her dog and cat just moved into her new house. Her boyfriend and she had just purchased a home together and moved in only for three months before she left and they had to sell. . So you caught this early enough to make life easier for you. Good luck, you did the right thing in a timely manner.

Moni I had no idea about any of this! Anyhow, I'm glad you're back where you are safe and sound. Kudos that you listened to your inner voice and did what was right for you. I'm very sorry you had to go thru this heartache, but you are ok, and that's what's important.

Best of luck to you Moni. You are going to be just fine!!

I just found out about all this today. Again I am so sorry things didn't work out. Something better will come your way.

Moni is a positive person. Your well wishes are grand, but I know that she will get through it. All she has to do is hop on her bicycle and go anywhere but Florida!

I don't really care that she didn't stop for a sandwich on her way past my house.

Go Moni!

Oh, Jim, we did the FAST road, aka I 75. I just wanted to get outta there. Thanks again for contacting me. Moni

Happy to hear you're back home Moni and ready to rebuild. I can't imagine how unsettling the whole experience was. Peace and hugs to you.

Another adventure by Moni. I'm sorry this one wasn't as fun as some of the rest, but that's just how some adventures play out. Cream always rises to the top. See ya top side!!!

Well said, Curlysue. Better to be alone than wish you were……..

"The best laid plans of mice and men..."

I'm sorry things didn't work out the way you had thought they would, but you are a strong, capable woman who can now move on to bigger and better things.

And you don't owe anyone any explanations. All we need to know is that you are back in Oklahoma and are ok.

I'm sorry it didn't work out.

You'll be fine, I'm sure. Thanks for the update.
