I have been divorced for 20 years as of tomorrow

I've written about it before, so I won't go into much detail. My OCD nature compels me to acknowledge anniversaries and such; it helps me process and deal with the situation. It really does seem like yesterday, going to the court house, settling up...

It’s been 7 years for me and no one in my future as of yet, I was married 17 years, not sure if I will get married again but who knows

It almost sounds like you have PTSD. Why would you regret having gotten away from such a person? I don't think you gave yourself enough time to process all this. I didn't realize what was really going on as I think I read through too quickly and then I see someone said you were married to a narcissist. It's like you go on and on about how bad she was and then have remorse or having divorced her or something I don't know but I don't think you have your head together before getting married again. I could be wrong, but it sounds like you haven't worked through the issues from the last person and that's a must.

I remember the surreality and oddness of some of the emotions. I’m so happy you landed in a good place! 😄🤗

Have you moved on yet

uncalled4 · 56-60, M

@Jenny1234 Yes, thank you. I am currently with a wonderful woman going on 13 years now and although not officially engaged, we are planning things.

@Strictextendedfamily Yes. Actually, I began dating a few months after filing which I do not recommend, it was too soon. I dated a crazy person for 6 years, and the fact is that she got her hooks in me because I was vulnerable during the proceedings. Divorce is one of the most stressful things a person goes through.

@uncalled4 do you still have contact with former wife ?
