Just Visiting...
 
I only come here occassionally, mostly when I hear from my XAH and think about how crazy my life was couple of years ago. I was clicking through threads that reminded me of how far I've come and how thankful I am for SR and for doing what was necessary even when it all seemed impossible. Just reading the threads was hard for me because it brought back so many memories of what life was like. I have to say, that I've never in my life been an content, happying, and fulfilled as I am now. Not only because I divorced my aH, but because I worked on me. I have people in my life who have prompted me to look into myself and become a better person, who have prompted me to believe in me. I am, for the first time in my life, in a relationship that is in everyway healthy and happy! There is life beyond all this, but those very unhealthy, unhappy years are not forgotten, they lead me to where I am now!

Thanks for reminding me that there is light at the end of the tunnel. Going through a rough time now as we try and finalize the divorce and dealing with all the usual entitlement mindset, and my AH's mind that just doesn't think too well, trying to sell 2 houses etc etc. I just have to continue to hang in there and one day it will be over. In North Carolina there is a 1 year separation requirement before divorce can be filed. The one year is up as of today...........I think I might just see a tiny flicker of that light ...........
