Husband left me 3 months pregnant...

great posts Piano and Gatsby! this:

Hey, and remember the story you shared with us...the older woman who was separated 3 yrs or something from her WH. Try to be like you imagine she was during that time. Tip the emtional balance away from blaming WH, to pitying him or something and seeing that he's not mature and needs this time to grow..and you too.

and this:

Other positives of being 'alone': strengthening relationships that may have otherwise been neglected like friends and other family, you create your own peace (er, perhaps a baby can interrupt that ha ha!), and knowing that you are developing a rock-solid strength that will get you through anything!
All that said, today as I was driving through some restaurants in town, I missed WH. I liked when we would go out. We didn't do it often enough.

I helped myself get over that feeling by acknowledging that I WILL go to restaurants with a man in my future. I will date at some point, when I'm ready. And it will be so worth it at that time. Worth the waiting now.

2 very good points that I need to hear right now! I hope they comfort you, too, Babydoll!
