Divorce Sucks

[nick garai]

Hi. I got divorced from my wife after only three years of marriage. She had an affair on me.

Divorce sucks.

 

[dayhiker]

yes, I think that is pretty much the universal feeling people have about divorce. But there is life after divorce.

For some people, yes it sucks. For others, it may be a relief from a negative situation.

I was happy about my first divorce. The one I'm about to go through, not so much. This one sucks.

 

[dayhiker]

sorry to hear your going thru your 2nd divorce, Cute Tink.

sorry to hear your going thru your 2nd divorce, Cute Tink.

Thanks. I guess it wasn't meant to be. I took it really hard at first, but my ex has moved on and is happy with someone new now and that's exactly what I wanted to happen (well I wanted her to be happy at least)

I'm doing pretty well though, so don't worry

Eeewwwww! Sorry about the end of your marriage and how it ended.

Yes, divorce does suck. In my case it was unwanted by me, so I concur.

Stay strong, Nick. Get into The Word, and ask the Lord for help with healing. Come here for venting and support. As time goes by, the pain will lessen. It's almost two years when my ordeal began and things are much better.

I agree. My husband had an affair and left me and my four kids high and dry. It is so lonely and hard. I HATE it. I can't take the emotions sometimes.
sorry you are going through this!

I agree I'm currently in the process of going through it and I feel like I'm physically splitting in half.

It sucks and there is little support for the pain. I was married 17 years, signing the agreements tomorrow after being separated for 3 months. We have to wait a year before finalizing it. This is one of the most painful things to go through, and there is next to no support.

DivorceHope is a great course.

I was married 22 years but pretty much knew I should have tried to get out years ago. I stayed for the "sake of the kids." I really think that was the worst thing I could have done because the last 10 years were many ups and downs and the kids saw it, heard it all, and now they deal with the aftermath of our train wreck (the boys are ages 20, 19 and daughter is 16. It's hitting her the hardest because she's in the middle of it. She lives with me, sees her dad maybe 2 hours per week. He lives not even a mile from us). But...as previous posters stated..it's much like feeling like you've been ripped in half and trying to glue pieces back together. Kinda like Humpty Dumpty in the old nursery rhyme..don't know if all that can be be put back together.

Praying for you!

 

[dayhiker]

melisue .. sorry to hear the pain you and the kids are going thru.
I pray you find healing with time.

sending prayers for all of us. ((especially Svt)- I was there 5 mos ago.
the pain ebbs and flows and each time you confront it and acknowledge it, and ask forgiveness for any hardness of heart you expressed, the healing moves forward.

 

[WorkInProgress4Life]

I can sympathize with you. I'm going through the same thing. ((Hugs))

Thank you. I am at the tail end of anger, I'm hoping... but I've also come to realize that fellowship with Jesus involves suffering, as that is where we learn compassion like Jesus did.
