Thanks forward, very thought provoking post. None of us know what the future holds, there are so many possible futures that could play out and you just gave me a glimpse of one.
I find it very sad that the destruction continues on years later with your daughter still suffering from her dads choices and actions. And that your X who I am sure you once held dear to your heart is still lost, still not able to acknowledge or validate you, and stuck in an unhappy life.
I am so glad to hear that you have found happiness yourself. That's just wonderful. It does show that happiness comes from the work you do within yourself and learning to be grateful for the small things every day. And focussing on the future rather than the past.
I wish you and your D and your new man lots of positive vibes
