In my experience, it was easier living day-to day with H gone, especially when he was hostile/depressed..living on eggshells is no easy task and its tiring to be always "on"...but once H left and the contact diminished, well, that was hard too!

Anger will get you only so far in detachment..then the real internal work starts to truly detach...

When they are with the OW, its probably easier that they are gone, but every person's situation is different..

Out of sight doesn't necessarily mean out of mind.

To be angry is understandable, just try not to act out of anger.

Focus on improving you, for your sake and no one elses.
