Yes, 'chuffed' is a good thing ---- it means, 'very pleased'.
Who says the first R after a D is doomed? My present M has lasted 23 years after my D from my XH (3 year M). And, here we are, still together even after the EA. Go slow, but if it feels right, then go for it, and if it doesn't work, then at least you tried. This is no time for fear, or not taking risks. Life is for living.
Scr*w the people who have let you down! They have shown their true colours. Let it go, and find a new and better life for yourself.
Phew! Take care.
