Ok... I'm not new to these boards by any means. I was a heavy contributor to these boards back in 2004/2005. I learned a lot of good things, and had a lot of good experiences. I actually considered myself a Master DJ.
Now that I have returned, the whole website has changed and things are totally different. Gone are the people I used to know, and I don't remember half the things that I said, and even preached over 5 years ago. Some people might remember me as Dukester.
Now I'm back, trying to get back in the game and re-learn all the stuff I used to preach, and all the things I already know (sounds crazy, I know).
Here's my story:
In 2005, I met this girl and her and I became really close. We ended up dating around mid-2005 and her and I have been with each other ever since. She pretty much immediately moved in with me in late 2005, and in early 2008 we got married.
I joined the US Air Force in late 2008 and we ended up getting stationed in Japan. Somewhere along the way things went downhill for us, and the military no doubt had a play in it. In retrospect, I shouldnt have joined the service at 24 years old, but I can't change that now.
I knew our marriage was going downhill and it was just a matter of time before it came to an end. I'm currently deployed to Iraq, and I got the divorce papers in the mail.
The thing is, she doesnt want to divorce me, but feels it's the only option. Her and I are both really messed up, and havent quite figured out what we want out of life. We both dropped out of college and really have nothing to show for ourselves. I joined the military and absolutely hate it, and she came along for the ride. She came to Japan with me abandoning all her family and friends and essentially having no-one.
Now the funny thing is... this is the girl that I made several posts before I left the boards as Dukester in 2005.
So I guess my real question is... how do I get back in the game? How do I re-learn the principles, tactics, rules I used to know. How do I get that confidence back? I'm still in the grieving process over this, but I'm only 24 (25 in November), so I still have a lot of time left.
Sorry about the long azz post, I know I hate reading long sob stories. Thanks for any and all help you guys can provide. I know I probably sound like an AFC now (and I probably am), but once a DJ always a DJ right? I'm just a lost and forgotten DJ...
