Hey Snake, welcome back!
It's been a long time.
First of all I am so very sorry about the end of your marriage. Snake, it's been a long time, but I too have been there. Although everyone's circumstances are different, I understand that void you feel afterward, especially when the kids are grown and on their own. It does get better. As a matter of fact, it's actually kind of nice answering only to yourself.
Hang in there.
As far as the BB, I think we probably all understand how you feel . Yes, things can get tense and trouble comes and goes and sometimes stays around for a while,
but yea, the best thing to do his ignore or hold back. Sort of like quitting smoking.....you get the urge to fire up, but you hold back.
Anyway, welcome back and don't be a stranger. I remember you as always being gentlemanly.
