I just found out HE'S GOING TO MARRY HER when the divorce is final. I did something I shouldn't have...I snooped on her facebook wall........she is talking about how they're going to get married and how his oldest son just had a baby so, she's a 'gramma'. His oldest is not my son......I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE NONNA! I feel like I just want to run away, or drive off a bridge or drive over them. I feel like he just left me all over again. How do you get past this? He left me 7 months ago...and now he's planning a whole new life without me....my body isn't even cold yet!!!! I hate them, I hate them, I hate themI don't especially like myself right now either.
**huggs** I know you have heard it will get better in time and you just dont see it now. BUT it will!!! Let him have her and her have him because there are some traits that people wont, dont and cant change. Look in the mirror now and look at all your pain and all the hurt you have gone through with all of this and then see you just looked into her future as well. SHE will be the one sitting there crying in a few years over what he will be doing to her . Its petty but take a bit of smug satisfaction in that.
You deserve so much better in life. We all do. And she did you a favor but taking that selfish dick bag off your hands.
You got your children to think of now and you also need to think about your self as well. Not how much you hurt but think of all the good you bring to your sons lives and all the things you have to look forward to in the future. Take the chance to start fresh and re-invent yourself and this all will be your past someday but it is still her future.
Good luck to you!! Take care!
Well I guess all of us are here at some point. My ex is engaged to the "OW" still. I actually don't care anymore. I admit that it was strange when I found out, but in all honesty, it keeps his focus on something else, which is better for me. I have no feelings for the man. I still think back and feel a bit of rage now and then at how things ended, (though I always knew they would), but for my kids, I keep it all smiles and healthy responses. Sometimes it's hard, but so worth it for them.
Try and remember you are better off on your own than in an unhealthy relationship, and let go of hating them. You'll have a better life because of this, believe me. You'll find someone you can love without abandon. Just give yourself time to heal, and have as little contact with them as possible. Take care of yourself
The woman is clueless and disrespectful by having that info on her facebook page. Then again, she has been from the beginning when she and your ex perpetrated the breakdown of your marriage. Try to work your way through the fact that they will never do what is right by you. I know that's tough and unfair, but they're not worth anymore of your time and emotion. That said, for your own good in the long run, any information that you share with your children regarding anything the ex and his sidekick do that hurts you, is influencing them and places them in between you and the ex. Even if he's being a dirtbag to them now. Your sons sound very mature and intelligent and will be able to see whats what in your situation, but you run the risk of alienating them from you and complicating or delaying any healing they experience with their father. Ignore anything the ex and her do together, you're better off and everyday you will feel stronger and eventually, you won't care what they do. Hang in there.
