I am single, but then again, I was single while I was married. How does that happen? It happens when only one person is working on the marriage for most of the marriage. When my husband filed for divorce, he beat me to it, made it as miserable as possible, drug it out until my son and I almost had to give up moving out of state and so, when it was over, I was so relieved, I could finally sleep again. I took pleasure in handling my own divorce without an attorney and being able to stand toe to toe with his attorney, sweet justice!
I do mind being lonley, but do not fear being alone. It is hard to meet someone when you move across country and no longer have a base group your own age. I will survive though it is not always what I want, to just "survive" I mean, I want to live every second left as if it were my last on earth.
