Yes - you're a survivor! Welcome to the club where we don't just survive - we thrive. It has been 4.5 years for me since my divorce and 8 years since Ex ran off with maggot. And I hardly ever think of them anymore because I'm enjoying my new life - just like you.
I remember my dr saying the week we first split (& I was going crazy) - "Don't think of it as your life being "over" - think of it as a fork in the road and you're life is just taking the different path. It is being "redirected". Well - for someone who didn't want to be "redirected" - we're doing awesome.
