I Am Divorced

Totally understand. It does seem weird sometimes. The last anniversary that I celebrated was our 28th. At the end of it, I kissed her and asked how that felt. She said it felt like I was kissing my sister. Which is exactly what I was thinking. We got divorced after 30 years of marriage. I texted her with "Happy 30th Anniversary, and they said it wouldn't last". She didn't text me back. My mother told me it wouldn't last and her father said I was the wrong guy for her. Wish we listened to our parents, but my big ego got in the way. It was more of a joke than anything.


I haven't talked to her in almost a year and I can't say I miss her. I am sometimes surprised I don't. I do have some positive memories, though they didn't show up until a couple years after our divorce. They caught me off guard, but they are just as important in the "Letting Go" process as the negative memories. How long have you been divorced? I'm on year 3.75, but whose counting :)
