Thankyou, I wish I could feel proud but I just feel broken and like I am getting nowhere. I’m so sorry that you are going through similar and I hope that conversation with your children goes as well as can be expected. My kids are pretty much the only thing keeping me going – we didn’t get to have a sit down discussion because my husband just walked and since then despite asking multiple times we haven’t been able to actually have a conversation. Poor kids were stuck with me barely getting out of bed and crying continuously for the first few days but they have been so resilient and thoughtful. After so many years its so hard not to just question what I did wrong, why wasn’t I good enough and what did I do to deserve this. I can’t even think about being with anyone else so to know he is already buying valntines presents for another woman barely a month after walking out….it actually physically hurts.
