Filling the void (newbie)
| Mon, 09-29-2008 - 9:42pm |
I got divorced 2 months ago. She was cheating on me. We gave counceling an honest effort but it just didn't work out.
We were married for 6 years and together for 10 years. Although the spark was gone in the marriage for a long time.
There were no kids involved and it was an amicable divorce.
Now how do I fill the void left in my hart?

Mju,
Welcome to the board. We hope you find support and advice here. It's a great place to vent and share experiences.
You know something? Divorce is a huge rejection especially when it follows on the heels of betrayal. It's only natural to feel very lonely after a marriage ends under these circumstances (or any circumstances). Dealing with being "single again" is tough. It's double hard for us married folks because we know what we're missing!
That said my first bit of advice is NOT to run out and start dating. Nope! Being lonely is not a good reason to seek romance - even a one night stand - because you are wounded. You need time to heal and recover. Wounded people do not make good partners. Also, you stand a good chance of meeting up with another wounded soul. You know what that looks like? Your

Thank you everyone for your support and advice.
I know I can get through it but sometimes it's really tough.
