Just read a bit from "Runaway Husbands" on the internet. It is an old book, but you will see your story there. At least I saw mine. I have always suspected that my stbx was having an affair, and that little bit of reading confirmed it. Left me for someone at work. If they get married, she is leaving a 15 year old daughter behind. Her third marriage. And he wants her? Haha! What a piece of garbage. They deserve each other. We are all going to be fine. I just wish it was sooner, rather than later. And I think the key is to finding someone else, not for marriage, just conversation. I do miss a male's point of view. Thank GOD I have my son. Have a good week-end!
Love your attitude, you rock!
Thank you so much! It has been a rough 4 months, but I am happy to report I do not cry on a daily basis anymore. I am not waiting to seek out companionship as I have been lonely for a long time. My ex husband never had time for me. Oh I will take a financial hit, but I am going to be okay. I have a son who loves me and many friends who think I am terrific. You can't beat that! As soon as the house sells, I am out of here and moving ahead. :)
Think you can enjoy being alone if you find things to do that interest you. Maybe volunteering, maybe a exercise class, maybe free museum days. You have to go out and create Zen to feel good about being one. The more you put into this, the less time you have to feel lonely. Hope that helps.
