From what my mama has told me, to her, divorce felt like a death. She mourned as one would with the death of a loved one. The hopes and dreams of a happily ever after had died. As a child going through the divorce of her parents, it hurt just as much. I felt like all of those pictures and memories of a happy family had been lies. I felt a sense of complete loss, an emptiness, and anger. I'm sorry that you're going through such a difficult time. I won't tell you that it's going to happen overnight, but it WILL get easier and you WILL be able to heal. Many hugs...
On 20 October I celebrated my 10th anniversary of my divorce. That was one of the all time happiest days of my life!!
I went through a very nasty divorce when I was really young (20) and it was very bitter. It was very painfull. The only thing that I can say is that time heals wounds. And that is a fact. You can count on time. Best wishes my friend, count on better things...they are coming.
I got divorced 6 months ago after 6 years toghther. Dont ever give up hope that things will get better. Just focus on you and things will fall back in place. I realize now I didnt like the person I had become being married to her. Im way behind but Im cathchin up!
