olds8598,
Thank you so much for your words, I'm so sorry what has happened to you as well. It sounds like you are in a good place and getting better with every day. Your story has indeed helped, your story and others have showed me i'm not alone in how i'm feeling. And that things will get better. Even though in the back of my mind I've known all along I will be OK, It's still hard to get passed a lot of what's happened to me. I know I have to though.
Anyway, thank you so very much and God Bless everyone on this site that has prayed and help with encouraging words.
You're welcome . And thank you.
It's true what they say: 'Time heals all wounds.' One of my best friends in the 80s ended our friendship after only seven years. We've been apart more than we were together. Now, after just about three decades, I could sit down with him and have a beer and catch up. I do not know if we could be friends again, but I definitely could spend time with him.
We all heal individually. For example: you may be faster than me, but slower than the next person. That's ok. It's not a race. It has to do with our personalities, emotional makeup, marital situations, etc. The main thing is that we all heal.
You'll get through it. Take it day by day; if you have to: moment by moment.
One last piece of advice is based on a saying I once heard: "I wept because I had no shoes, then I saw a man with no feet." This basically means there is always someone who has it worse than you. A perfect example of this is the following.
When I was going to Housing Court in Spring 2012 dealing with the eviction scenario, I met a guy whose wife left him after 23 years of marriage for a man she met on Facebook just a few weeks prior. She used to handle their finances, including their rent . So she not only left him, but she left him to be evicted.
