Yesterday a year ago my H walked out.. I honestly thought my world had ended, no my world had started, all my dear friends on here bouyed me up and encouraged me to GAL and to find what I wanted out of my new life..
From the word go I loved DB, I got the book and read every bit and put it into play, at times it was fun watching H squirm and other times it broke to me pieces to go NC for nearly six weeks when I had spoken to him every day for thirty years, but eventually although too long a story to tell he came home!
This weekend I went and spend the afternoon doing his hobby with him, it felt very strange knowing what a mess I'd been in this time last year and how different I was now!
DB helped me work on my fears, worries and my self esteem, I didnt realise how needy I had become and how some things had let slip which although I thought I was doing them so as not to be greedy ( I have an expensive hobby so spent little on myself) left me with very little respect for myself and well being.
Well to cut a long story short I know I already said that, but things are better than before still a long way to go on some things, still lots of talking to do, but although I was very apprehensive about this anniversary I found myself bemused at my happiness, the only time I fell apart was when H said "its ok Im still here" and I promptly burst into tears..
But most of all Im lucky to have a happy ending but folks even if your ending isnt so happy DB for YOU! It was and is the best thing I ever did for myself, thank you Michelle I will always be gratefull for finding your book and your website, and also to my friends, some have called time on their M's and no longer come on here, but for all of you Im very gratefull xxxxx
