I Am Getting a Divorce

It's Going To Be Okay. :)

By: Brittles28
Written on September 12th, 2012
I don't know whether to pour my heart out, give away all the details, or just a brief blurb. I've grown so fast and learned so much that after all the back and forth I can finally say "It's going to be okay". If I could say one thing to people struggling to make the decision to cope with a dull pain forever or a short term harsh ache, I would say it's worth it to hurt for a little while. If you know in your heart of hearts that it's over, then it's okay to let go. Let go and find happiness, you can do it and it's going to be okay. People have to make decisions in their own time and learn what's right when it's time but whenever they do, they need support and someone there to say "Hey, I love you, and you deserve to smile every single day. I'm here and I want you to know it's going to be okay." I'll be that person for you if you're struggling. Put the burden on me and I'll carry it until you can find your strength.

    Its sometimes one of those hmm... moments were people who could have been together for a long time don't have a choice to separate due to life circumstances yet others choose willingly... Life certainly is ironic at times....

    I am lucky to have some close friends for support but sometimes I wonder if I'm taking advantage of them. Thank you for your words as they were comforting - I hope you found some words as well that were comforting to you.

      I have found those words and with them I was able to pass them along. I'm so glad I was able to help you in any way. :)

    Im sorry for your loss and I feel your pain. I just want you to know that my story was to make the point that when it's more difficult to stay and more painful to stay that its going to be okay if you walk away. Its never easy but it is possible and people can get through it.

    When my wife left me i did not have anyone to help me get through the pain of losing her. The reason i had know one was that she was my best friend. Every one has different reasons for leaving the marriage but please remember that each of you loved one another and hatred never helps. I lost all my friends to some tragic circumstances in the past and you are able to get past the pain of there loss over a period of time. For myself now knowing that I will go through life without my wife and that you know in ur heart that the love for her will not fade away is a painful ordeal. Remeber when u love someone that much. Never take them for granted or you life will wzlk out the door.
