It's been ages since I last wrote and I'm sorry for that. Combination of work and nothing really of value to report. I guess there is some value in having nothing of value to report - it means I am no longer caught up in the endless tunnels of my ex. I realise those tunnels were created by me and I stayed lost in them so long is also on me. Yes, he left. But I chose to remain stuck.
Happy new year guys. I will try and catch up on everyone's thread later today but wanted to give a quick update.
Yes, I am alive and well. Content (as much as we can be with all the madness happening outside my four walls) if not always happy. Yes, mentally, if not legally, I have moved on. It is possible to do. Time does heal. You will know that you have moved on when you are no longer concerned with what they do or don't do. I do however, wish him well and hope that his choices bring him happiness (PS - there is no sub-text here). No, I am not with anyone else and I am not actively dating. Now is not the time for it. I keep busy with work, the children and trying to keep in touch with the people who matter.
That's the bare bones of it.
And despite the sh!t we find ourselves in, I am more hopeful going into 2021 then I was going into 2020.
