So I am divorced.

mahhhty,

Social media can be a tough thing to navigate during difficult times. I personally made the choice to "block" STBX on FB and other platforms because nothing she posted ever made me feel good - at best I convinced myself I didn't care and at worst, it made me really angry or hurt. I explained to her that I wasn't blocking her out of anger - just for my own good. I don't know if this is something you're interested in doing, but I think it helped me quite a bit.

I wanted to ask you about hope. I think you and I are in similar stages of D process and you commented the other day in my thread to the effect of "it doesn't have to change anything if you don't want it to." I've been thinking about that a lot lately. How do you maintain hope? I don't mean to imply your situation is hopeless at all. I guess I'm just wondering where your will to keep fighting comes from. When she filed, I think most of my hope died and when I file soon, that pretty much seals the deal aside from the mandatory waiting period my state dictates.

Thanks again and sending good thoughts your way.
