No matter what people say or think, they do not put food on your table, and certainly do not pay your bills. So let them talk. As I say... talk good or talk bad, at least someone will remember me.
Your H probably spread enough gossip for your whole neighborhood to be curious of what is going on. Besides, people expect GG crying, depressed, dressing pathetic, no energy to go out and have some fun. And instead, they get a new GG, full of grace, owning he space and sure of her charm. This GG makes people nuts, some may even envy you.
I would bet that many of the married women are thinking twice on staying in their boring marriage. And many man is thinking that your H is a real idiot, leaving a great woman to try his lucky somewhere else.
Life comes and goes, it's what we do with the time we have that counts and GG is doing all right. The heart hurts but the outside is hot and attractive.
Go on GG, live your life in full. Put that pain in a shelf somewhere and enjoy your day. Your H may have a heart attack, but that isn't you business anymore, at least for now.
