You call yourself dull, but this short comment revealed the opposite picture. Kids are a lot more authentic than adults. Clearly they found a lot to enjoy about you.
> My wife took all that from me though, so now I need to fight to get my kids back.
There's an intense amount of suffering and courage in this statement which you tried to present in such a deadpan, flippant way.
> So I don't care any more what others think of me. I came to accept my dullness and embraced it. If it bores others, I don't care.
That's good, but I don't think you're actually dull or boring. Someone put that in your head and you accepted it.
