hmm.. I've done a lot of silly stunts that most would probably consider daring or risky.. I'm thankful however for the resourcefulness and fortitude of my inner moral compass AND strength of character that kept me from teetering over the edge.. my dad used to say "I don't have to worry about you.. you have a horse shoe up yer azz sideways!!" 
that said.. I think the most daring (barring the ones I won't share on a public forum ) is leaving and divorcing my abusive Ex with an infant and 4 year old in tow, 19 years ago.. striking out into the unknown, terrified, yet with a firm resolve to take on the full brunt of being responsible for my and my children's lives!
hidesight gives this one... a 2 
Hat off to you Zero_Effect along similar lines (some dares are best left unsaid on any forum) but 4 years ago I decided to walk out of a stable but controlling and abusive relationship, living in a foreign country, settling my daughter into the school and system and deciding that I have the guts to do this! So far so good :-)

All I can say is Amazing!! Truly...that takes so much courage, and sadly so many women don't do it. You are an inspiration, even if you don't realize it. |

Going abroad alone to work, in a country with a language I did not speak, where every individual was a stranger.

Quit a job that was draining me on most levels and not having a backup plan.

well it's made me the woman I am today and I'm proud of who I am just as im sure you are. Do if they can't except that there not worth giving my love and heart to you're right.. I am very proud of the life hurdles I've overcame (and at times still have to jump through hoops ) as well as how it has refined me.. as it has you!! and agree.. they're not worthy of our affections, let alone our attentions..

it is terrifying to a) be in that kind of situation where the only SANE option is leaving.. b) hard as heck to build the courage to make the first step.. c) finally finding the strength to actually leave! hats off to you gibbs.. for taking the first step.. by making the right decisions for you and your children.. I had nothing from my ex.. no child support OR alimony.. at first I had to rely on government assistance.. but after 3 months of knocking on doors (with kids in tow).. I found a new beginning! Luckily though.. I wasn't in another country! I would think that would be even more difficult!

you're very right about the odds.. it's not that they don't do it.. for many it's they CAN'T! there's a paralyzing fear that can easily mire you down sadly.. it's REALLY hard to overcome (not saying here I'm any better than the many that can't...) I was just fortuitous enough to question the validity of his remarks & actions.. which then became a lifeline to the logical me.. and how I was able to break a cycle, before it started! there's tons of women who have done just as I.. so no. I don't see myself as an inspiration.. however.. if by putting this out there.. someone CAN profit.. then that would be an unforseen blessing!

I'm not a daring person. I'd just bore you guys. But my kids make up for it. I live vicariously through them
