Hi everyone! It has been a busy few weeks with finals in one of my classes and him moving back in. It has been an adjustment. It has amazed me how used to being alone I was at home. It felt like a violation at […]

Lady VanBuren:
I’m in school and work for a university. Financial Aid is based on your income. Go to FAFSA.gov and complete the questionnaire there. You will be able to select the school to send your report to. […]

Thanks for your feedback and I sincerely appreciate the concern. I am going into this with my eyes wide open. I am paying attention and I’m doing what I need to do for me as well. It is true that he has said and […]

Amy:
Please don’t feel like seeing a therapist or taking anti-depressants is bad thing or that it means you have hit “rock bottom”. What it means is that you are taking steps to help yourself, which is the most […]

Amy…I too had the same thoughts and feelings that you are going through. I found it very hard to go on and not constantly beg him to come back home. The best thing I did for myself was to find ways to occupy me. I […]

Well, today he told me that he wants to work things out. I’m happy to have this opportunity, BUT I’m not going in blind. I’m still going to see my therapist and I’m going to continue to come here. I need to be a […]

Amy:
There is nothing wrong with needing help. I’ve felt better since being on the medication….a lot better. I can make it through the day without tears now. I feel more calm and am able to look at things without […]

Amy:
If I had not found this site, I would have gone off the deep end. The ladies here do care, and the mere act of typing a post about how you are feeling is very therapeutic. It helps you get your feelings out […]

I understand what it is like to have memories every where you turn. My wasband has been everywhere with me…to my job, at home, my parent’s house, every other relatives’ house, restaurants, movies, every dang […]

I take Melatonin, but I still wake up in the middle of the night and it is an hour or so before I can go back to sleep. I slept through the night last night for the first time in a long time. I do feel tired this […]

Thanks ladies. I know it seems like I’m setting myself up, but honestly, I’m preparing myself for the rejection again. I think I feed his ego with every phone call about getting back together. He probably tells me […]

Thanks ChippyC! I see a counselor twice a month. I was seeing her before the divorce, so she has been there every step of the way. It helps to talk to her, and it helps to come here and share my thoughts/feelings […]

ChippyC….I agree with you on the short men! My wasband is 6′ 7″. The few men that I’ve met since him have been my height or shorter! I’m not used to that AT ALL and it is hard to overcome. I like a tall man. I […]

I think they think it is easy to move on because in reality they have already. They are gone before the announcement is made. They have checked out with their feelings and mentally they are gone even if they are […]

Going to church today really helped me. The sermon was from Psalm 90. The pastor talked about how God is the only constant in our lives. Everything else is temporal. When I talked to my wasband yesterday he told […]

The past few days have been really hard. I’ve called, cried, pleaded, and now I’m just tired. I don’t want this new life that I’m being forced to live. I wish I could just forget him and move on the way he’s […]

I had one just this morning! In the dream, he was telling me yet again that he didn’t want to be with me and that he was leaving me for someone new. I broke down in the dream. When I woke up, it was as if I could […]
