I am
divorced from my ex for over 10-12 years now. He left me for better pastures. I stayed single as I still love him. He is now going through #2 divorce and found a new woman to pursue.Logically, I know this was a toxic relationship but emotionally, I STILL want him back. He has never stayed faithful in relationships before me or after me altough there is no proof of during the relaionship. We had a fight last night so I am already having a bad day.I know him, he will be back when he is ready.What do I do? Logics and emotions are in conflict. We have kids toghter so I can never get away from me completely. When things are going smoothly, we can do almost anything as co-parents. We dont even follow the divorce papers anymore.

I know what it is like to have feelings go against our logic. I guess what I'm trying to do is choose which feelings I act on.

We need as much support as possible that is healthy

I held on to hope and loved my ex for far too long. It impeded my ability to be happy and to move on and have a life of my own. I am grateful I was able to finally let go. It feels like a huge burden has been lifted from my shoulders. I wish you the best as you work things out.

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things.

I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
