Hello everyone. Haven't been on here for a very long time. Not sure if any of my old friends are still here. I am a different person now. I've gone through it all. I'm divorced. Restraining order was put in place over a year ago. I do not see or hear from him at all and it's great. It took me so long to get here and get over him. But I did it. I hope I am an inspiration to you all. It can be done. Just try and you can do this to. I did say I would not be interested in another man but that changed as I met a lovely man. The only thing I will never do is live with another man again. I like my own space now. We see each other a few times a week and it works fine. It's nice to have someone in your life but it's also nice to have time for yourself after having someone control you for so long. I have a few health issues but apart from that I am happy and life is better. I am my own person now and my life is mine . i hope you all find the strength that finally did and I wish you luck with this.
