After 1yr 8months am still more sad then ever.

But is ok to feel this way.
I have posted notes to myself saying
Is ok to not be ok
Is not you fault
Today is a new day

I must say these reminder notes help me alot

As everyone has said. Stay away from H
I know is easier said than done
But find things to do.

I know when W left I thought it was the end.
But I have read some pretty bad stories of MLC
Stay at home.
I am so glad W left, WAW

I can't imagine waking up to a monster everyday or even sleeping
In the same roof. My W did that for a while walking around, making noise
I couldn't sleep I honestly thought I wasn't going to wake I am scared of my W.

So you do what's best for you and S.
Financial
Emotional
Mentally
Physically
Always protect you and S.

You have a long road.

But remember is ok to not be ok
And is ok to cry
is ok...

Stay strong Living


Thank you so much Marina7, I love the idea of the post it notes. I think I’ll make some and put them on my bathroom mirror. That way when I look at myself in the mirror each morning, I’ll be reminded of the strong woman looking back at me.

It’s definitely tough living in the same house with him. First he said he would move out now he’s saying he’s not moving out. I guess it’s true that I really can’t trust or believe what he says. I’m not sure why a man who claims he wants out of this marriage, who claims he’s soooooo unhappy, won’t just move out. But nothing about him right now makes sense. So I’m done trying to understand him.

The only choice I have is to take care of my and my son and like others on this thread has said, leave my H to his mess.
