"If all you can do is all you can do, and all you did was your best, then you are living your fullest".

I read somewhere that you should wait at least a year before starting a new reltionship after your divorce. After personal experience I have come to realize this is very true. There has to be time to reaquaint ourselves with who we are after all of this. The last think you want to do is fall into imaginary love with someone else. This way you find yourself recovering from 2 heartbreaks instead of one. I am currently in the process of putting space between my rebound relationship and my next one. It honestly feels go to not have to deal with the insecurities that come from someone else. I just want a moment where I am comfortable with myself.

Jac Jac speaks the truth! I made it through the divorce ok it was the "rebound guy" that liked to kill me! Invest in you!! Be selfish and do only what YOU want! Figure out what makes YOU happy and who YOu are. Then and only then can you proceed to find a partner that fits YOU!

Lots of good things happen. Thats what happens AFTER divorce.....all in time.

You become a stronger person. You start discovering new likes....and dislikes. You discover new things about yourself. Even though you may feel that you are alone. Your not. Now you dont have to answer to anyone.....within reason lol. But now you have a newfound freedom. Freedom to do things and go places you couldnt before.

For me I have to save up $ to do the things I wanna do. But who doesnt?!

Overall things were rough and very depressing after my breakup. I wont talk about it but its all in my journal.

But I have already done things and eaten foods that I've never eaten before. But the biggest thing was finding love again. Finding a companion. Wasn't intentional nor was it expected. All I know is THINGS DO GET BETTER NO MATTER WHAT. You will heal, you will smile again. I couldnt imagine smiling again or being happy or just being confident anymore after the breakup. But once again......."all in time" are true and promising words. Stay strong friends.

I married young and was married for a very long time, so the thought of divorce was initially very devistating to me. I think what really scared me was the fact that I was a stay-at-home mom for many years and did not have a full time job to support me. It scared me to death to lose the financial support my marriage offered.

Well, it's been two years since the initial seperation and a year since the divorce. I still have my up and downs, but overall, I think I'm doing much better. Life really does go on after divorce. The most important thing I have found through all of this is MYSELF. I like who I am and how I live my life.

I'm currently in school to get my degree and be able to fully support myself. Is it hard to juggle kids, a part-time job and school? Heck yeah! But you know what, I wouldn't change it for the world. I love being proactive in the improvement of my life.

I don't look forward to finding anyone else because I will never trust men again, but I do look forward to finding out what makes me happy.
