Title: Being Single... Post by: Herodias on October 17, 2015, 12:58:44 PM I am beginning to feel better about being single. I think I am starting to be glad to be away from all of the drama in my marriage. I still wonder what kind of drama he is pulling with his new gf and possibly extra gf ... .lol We will divorce in Jan. I hate the word, but I am open to a possible future with people I can trust and be myself with. It has taken me 10 months to get to this point. I am still sad at times, but I think it helps for me to watch u-tube videos on all of these subjects of BPD, NPD, cheating and such... .also, co-dependancy and moving forward. I listen to them while I'm getting ready for work or in the car. Hope you all get to this point. If we leave these people be, it is their only chance at recovery... .if they don't, at least we have our own recovery... .with a chance at a "normal" future. Best wishes everyone... .

It has taken me quite a while to start to feel comfy in embracing my singleness. My identity was strongly interwoven in the idea of being "wife," "stepmom," and part of a larger family. I am slowly coming to terms with this. There are now moments I appreciate my time to myself again. I do love knowing I have control of my living environment. My home is now a physically and emotionally safe place of mutual love and respect. (It is just my son and I, lol). But this is my definition of "home." Thanks for sharing the positive vibes! *) |
