But I am still proud of myself for finding the St. Louis Galleria all by myself and going in there and doing some shopping. I keep reminding myself that was a huge step for me.
Hi Sara, this really resonated with me. When I first moved out of the house I had to get a lot of stuff to replace things I'd left behind. I went to Ikea and as I wheeled around my cart, filling it up with basic housewares, I suddenly was overwhelmed with how pathetic I felt. It was awful and I felt so alone. I couldn't discuss choices with anyone, I couldn't afford to replace the expensive things we'd received for our wedding with something identical, and I just felt like I had a big sign around my neck saying, "DIVORCING".
But things get better. You have to trust that. Sorry H isn't being realistic about the D.
