I hail you- I really, really do. If you want to go and feel like a failure, there is always an excuse to do so- and there is no shortage of women in failed marriages, who feel that way all the time. You went and took life by the balls! Can you imagine if you hadn't done that. If you feel like meeting the right man will make you and your family complete, then by all means, go for it. But it seemed like you went for what you wanted! Meeting the right man, may never happen (marriage or not). Just focus your energies on your kids, not on feeling like a failure. [ Reply | More
