My divorce was final in late October and I just moved into my own place. It is much smaller than the home I shared with my ex-husband, which is okay, but it's a tough adjustment and I feel extremely lonely and out of sorts being in a new place. Anyone out there been through or going through something similar? Would love to commisserate...
New to this site, doesnt seem like there is a lot of activity, which I wish there was because I feel alone. But anyways, nice to know that you are both still friends. How are you doing now?
Thanks to both of you who responded... it definitely is comforting to know that there are others out there who feel the same way, though I wouldn't wish these feelings on anyone. I am very fortunate in the respect that my ex-husband and I are still friends, but he lives in another state and of course that is a friendship with its share of baggage, to say the least. For me the hardest part of all this is figuring out my place in life, now that I am no longer part of a partnership. Not that being a wife was the only thing that defined me, but it was a big part. Waking up alone on a Sunday and having a day stretched ahead with no plans and no partner to share it with just sucks!
It's hard going from being with someone whom you have been accustomed to for so long, and then being alone, even if you get the occasional visitor. I used to live in a lovely apt with my beautiful wife before she left and then decided to divorce me long-distance, leaving me alone and having to move in with my Dad, whom was left by my mom many years ago. (small world, huh?) Now, I'm 7000 miles away from my loved ones, in a tiny (by US standards) apt, earning good money but having no use for money, no friends, and no happiness. This is the second overseas job I've had after my divorce, and it doesn't get any easier even 2 years later. It only feels worse every day. I sit here and wonder what she is doing, how her life is going, and why did my marriage have to die.
Welcome, I dont think you will find anyone here that isnt or hasnt gone through the same feelings, I know it doesnt help much but believe it or not it does help to know that there are other people going through the same feelings and emotions.
Have a look around the site and I think youll see that what you are going through is the same as most of us.
I know that for most divorce is the answer to a number of marriage issues and to suggest that there is hope for restoration to most is proposterious. But look around... how many divorced people are truely happy? They may seem to 'recover' if they...
