Was your divorce anything like you would have expected divorce to be like?
I know mine wasn’t.
Not. Even. Close.
Movies, books, billboards, magazine articles and my own parent’s divorce created certain expectations in my mind about what I could anticipate from divorce.
But the reality?
Something entirely different.
Can you relate?
I’m in this rocky boat currently. We had separated then decided to work things out and now we’re back on the fence. When we did first separate it was definitely brutal. My level of hate and bitter was at an all time high. I vowed never to date again. I said I’d be okay with it. I figured we would be able to co-exist in better harmony. All that lasted for a hot minute. Especially the emotions and co-existing. I’d like to think if we enter this road again it’ll be easier. It at least sounds nice when I say it
This post is SPOT ON! my only advice is FOCUS ON YOURSELF during the process. As you heal both emotionally and physically you can deal better.
