Dealing with divorce

I'm trying come to terms with where I am.

The last two years have been a nightmare.

I found out my husband was having an affair with a young girl. Not only that but he'd been having affairs behind my back for years, even with someone I'd considered a good friend.

I tried to repair it but there wasn't anything to repair really.

I ended up sofa surfing around friends in my church and drinking far too much. Finally the old friend who'd cheated with my husband told me to wise up. I went to a good solicitor and drove through a tough divorce.

My kids wanted to stay in the big house with dad and the new girlfriend. That was probably the most painful thing.

A few months ago I moved into a new house in a new city and was simply totally lost. I met a neighbour who's been just brilliant. She was the first person I didn't feel was judging me. She keeps suggesting here so I thought I'd try it.

I went thru a similar situation many years ago. He was an alcoholic and cheater. We had a little girl. We left him never to see him again and a few months later I met my future husband. Hang in there, it will get better and one day your kids will want to be with mom again. You made the right decision!🤗
