Life is good and getting better

[Eggshells]

When I first started reading this forum, I promised myself that I outdo post something that’s gives hope to all those who are struggling.

I moved out over the summer and although I was homeless for a couple of months, I always had home to go to thanks to some very supportive friends and family.

I’ve moved twice and am now in a tiny one bedroom flat which everybody loves because it has such a nice atmosphere. When my adult sons come to stay with their girlfriends, it really doesn’t feel crowded, just cosy.

The divorce has been stressful as I’m afraid it will be with abusive men but I am getting there now.

Sadly, I still work with him so not sure what my future holds. I’m just taking it one day at a time.

Overall I feel very positive. My life and destiny are now my own to do with as I please. I can relax in my own home and I can just be me. I’m amazed by the number of colleagues I have who have been through the same experience.

Given that there are so many abusive men out there, I’m not sure I will ever risk a relationship again, but that’s ok. I’m surrounded by lots of lovely people who love me for me. I have love and great relationships, i don’t need romance.

I’m sure there will be bad days to come and when they day I’ll get the support I need. Leaving was one of the scariest things I have ever done. It was also one of the best. So if you are having a bad day, please take heart; good days will come. XX
