I have grown alot. I manage a extremely stressful full time job, three kids, and the marriage home.
My relationship with God is as strong as ever.
I have dated but have not found anyone that really interests me. In all honesty my heart still is not healed or over my ex. My mind rationally knows our marriage is over and there has been an extreme amount of damage done. I can get over the affair, the abuse, the financial irresponsibility, but I am having difficulty getting over all his actions that hurt the children. I pray about this alot.
I sleep extremely well at night knowing I did everything I could.
My self-esteem is almost back to where it was pre-bomb.
I am closer to my children then ever.
There is life after a spouse in MLC. It is different though and I have learned we all have to stear our own ship and find our path to healing, love and forgiveness. No one can do this for us or rescue us.
