I take it by your handle that you went through a WAW? In that we can probably relate.
Am happy to share what I shared as all the pain can now serve a purpose. For someone other than myself.
The old saying... "What doesn't kill you will make you stronger", is so true. Hard to see at the time, but after the fact... I can see how real that is.
A lot of pain we go through in crisis is us letting go of things that were not good for us anyway. I had to give up a lot of attitudes and beliefs that were failing me... and my marriage.
I am better, way better, for it now. I don't mean to sound boastful, but I have no problem finding someone wonderful now. An emotionally health and honest person is in demand out there. I take that with as much humility as possible. I take that to say that what didnt kill me did make me stronger.
There is no reason to believe that this won't be the same for anyone else.
