I am a newly divorced woman (2 weeks now) but have had 4 years time living separately as he moved to another state after we sold our house (to prevent foreclosure). During this time, we kept the lines of communication open and behaved like a family unit (3 kids now 12, 10 and 8) every summer and winter. We were both stalling the divorce and unable to reconcile. So what advice would you give to a woman who's newly divorced? Try to come to terms with the very real fact that your nuclear family will never be the same. Once he started his affairs (just last summer), these visits wreaked havoc on my emotional state. I could not face my own fear of divorce. During this time of separation, I also renewed a lost love of mine who was divorced himself. Advice: Do not start a new relationship at all until you have healed inside. You will not be emotionally ready and cannot give 100% to the relationship anyway. This lost love got so fed up with me that we "broke up" even though I was not legally single. Needless to say, I suffered twice the pain. Do seek out a church/God/Spiritual Enlightenment. I trust that God has a plan for me and I feared Him because I married in His Church. Confide in 1-2 trusted friends. Most friends are supportive but keep the details to a bare minimum. Most people are so busy that I find a summary works best. That goes for family too. Engage in an activity/hobby/support group that will keep you busy and distracted. In my case, I am actively job-hunting and doing informational interviews because I have been a stay at home mom for a decade while he advanced his career. If you have kids, you must go on and be the best mother to them. Show them who you are/were when you were young like sharing old albums/videos, things you enjoy/used to enjoy, activities that you used to do before you were married. A great way to empower yourself is to take a short trip with just you and your kids. It may be the first time without him. Plan it and show yourself that you can still travel and do these kinds of things on your own. Most of all, know that it takes time to rebuild your life. Think of it like when you graduated HS/College and the future was unknown back then. YOU will create a path again that is right for you. ~Janice~ As painful as it seems, time is a healer. Don't rush into relationships. It's hard if you're not mentally there and it's not fair on the other person. Every person is different. It might be take two years and you're ready. It might take five or perhaps never. And that's ok. Live for yourself. Spend time with family, as long as they don't drain you with negativity. Don't spend time with negative people. Enjoy your own company. Work on improving yourself. Organize trips on your own, go abroad or have a holiday on your own. You're beautiful. You're brave. You're strong. Never settle for anyone less. Make sure you value yourself. ~ Jess. I'm not sure what advice to give, pray, stay busy, if you have a job, be grateful for that and try to work at it each day. Keep the friends that are true to you and don't judge you. Make a life for yourself that you will like and enjoy. Know that some days are much harder than others. Know that just because someone stops loving you, you may not automatically stop loving them. It doesn't work that way. Find a way to use that love to set yourself free of them. Give them to the universe. Revenge thoughts are not good for you, put that energy into good thoughts for yourself. God, Karma and the universe will take care of you if you allow it and the person who decided to set you free.
