Man now wants to apologize for his sexual assault
You could really prove you are a changed man by turning yourself in to the police, and letting them contact your victim to see if she wants to press charges.
I'm sure readers will want to weigh in; I'll run responses in a future column.
Dear Amy: My ex-husband and I got married after a quick engagement of six months. I was 23, and we had two beautiful children together, but we were both young, and didn't know each other or ourselves. That marriage lasted for nine years, and ended four years ago.
After four years of being single and dating online and getting sober from alcohol and falling off the wagon for a few months, I moved into a recovery home for women to get myself straight and sober again. There, I met an amazing man with over 11 years of sobriety who was volunteering as a "handyman" for the house.
I was only there a few months until I moved into a new apartment and landed a wonderful job, got stable and the man and I started dating.
We have been together now for 10 months. We both have children (12, 7, 6 and 5) and we've both survived divorce. We both have struggled with addiction and are both active members of AA.
We understand important things about each other.
We talk about getting engaged within the next year and married in 2020.
Does that sound too soon to you? I want to show my kids what a healthy marriage is like.
