Am I the only one?

This week, I've read lots of posts from people who have recently broken things off with their alcoholic partner and are grieving, etc. My AH moved out almost two weeks ago and yes, I'm a little sad. Yes, I miss him if I dwell on it. But, mostly? Mostly, I feel happier, calmer, more peaceful. I feel like I made the first right choice in a very long time. I do have my moments of grief and my moments of weakness, but mostly I just feel relief. I feel like I grieved the loss of our marriage the last two years and I'm finally done? Am I the only one, or is there anyone else out there like me? Or, will this feeling of contentment come crashing down a few days, weeks, or months from now and I'll really miss him?
