For anyone that comes across this in the years that follow and wonders what happened with this situation; I am getting divorced. I'm not mad at them and they aren't mad at me. We are just sad and God I feel so alone.

I suspect many of us who divorced still felt some sadness about the event. Let's face it, it's not what the original expectation was. Now is the time to take care of you. Be your best friend as you adjust and look around for new horizons to explore. There is no timeline, no preconceived expectations or roadmaps you need to follow. Be yourself and beware of any self-destructive directions as those seem to be the easiest to fall into. You can always come here and talk about it. Use this board as often as you need to.

Hi pear, glad to hear it. fingers crossed you have a good future. god I know how much it hurts to feel so alone! that intense feeling doesn't last, in part it is a backlog coming up all at once and you are showing a lot of courage in facing it. wishing you all the best. Lily
