Hi Ribena,
I can relate to your words, I live very close to my estranged husband,so close that I can see his car in the driveway, he’s driven passed me when I have walked to the shop, we share the same supermarket, doctors, dentist, my heart skips a beat every time I see a car of the same colour/model.
I haven’t got the answer, I can’t afford to live else where and it means that I am close to my children (they live with him in the family home)
I highly recommend counselling, WA have helped me immensely.
Best of luck 🙂
