I filed for divorce in June and I’m currently waiting for my divorce to become final. We separated in February and have been living apart since. It was my decision due to my husband’s narcissism, neglect and the tipping point were his threats towards my dog (who is truly my baby.) We were together for 9 years before I left.

When we first separated I felt so much better and never once regretted my decision. While I still find myself not regretting it- I feel like I’ve struggled with my emotions more in the last month than I have this whole process. I’ve been lonelier and more weepy this month. I tried looking into dating and if anything it just made my loneliness worse. I just feel so helpless and I have no clue why.

Anyone else find themselves feeling this way even when they were the ones who wanted the divorce?
