YES! I went through this so badly in the beginning I thought I wouldn't survive. Sometimes the hurt is overwhelming. Sometimes it would take everything in me just to get out of bed in the mornings.
People couldn't understand why I was so upset when our marriage was so difficult but it was like a death. You've given up the loss of your dream of a life with this man.
The best advice I could give you is to feel what you are feeling and don't let anybody tell you that you are wrong to feel that way. Mourn the loss, cry, get mad and angry and throw a fit(if you want
).
And there is no time limit!
