OK, so this d-word thing is totally new to me. I’m going through it right now. I can’t believe we both have to torture ourselves and live together in this house before we split everything! Thank God we never had kids, although his “issues” were why we didn’t…now I have to start my life over as a 35-year-old woman that might not even ever be able to get pregnant because I’m so ancient! Someone tell me there is life after this - please! Will I ever love again!
There definitely is life after this! My ex and I stayed together 5 years too long in a 9.5 year marriage. We produced two beautiful children out of the mess. He could never be an adult either and at first it was cute but after that I realized that he seriously was not an adult. About getting pregnant late in life, why worry. I wouldn’t worry so much about that and concentrate more on making sure you don’t find the same type of person again. After that, make sure the children they already have aren’t crazy and they aren’t still tied at the hip to their ex. Or dating someone who has never been married and has none. There are underlying issues there as well. I would just advise to shop smart.
Occasionally we receive comments or stories from people that need and deserve to be heard and/or offered advice. The problem with these stories is that they tend to get hidden deep under the comments sections of specific posts. Which is why we have decided to open a new category on this site titled You Ask, You Answer. The purpose would be to offer you, our readers, a place where you could speak out and get heard - and more importantly, receive advice or hear the opinions of real people who have been through similar experiences. If you are interested in sharing your story with others, please send us your questions or stories to darndivorce@gmail.com. Personal information of the contributor will remain anonymous at all times. Thank you. -DWordDiva
