How about these three little words ....

I deserve better!


Each time we all sit back and feel sorry for ourselves and grieve for what we feel we have lost, we need to remind ourselves that we are worth more. They have all chosen their routes and must live with that. We are good people and we deserve better.

My ex treated me badly in hindshight, it was mental cruelty really to let me try fixing something when he wasnt being honest with what the problem was. He could have tried to help me fix our relationship but chose not to. In the end I think he actually went out of his way to make me unhappy because it gave him the justification to walk .... well its easier if we are both unhappy isnt it????

Now the kids wont see him and he is begging and pleading with them, saying how sorry he is and how much he loves them and how much he's hurting ......

Another three words comes to mind .....

Whos sorry now?

Better than 'please come home'(Yup ... done that one!) or I can change (yup, that too!) or it's my fault (oh yeahhhh!!)

I'm definitely in a 'I deserve better' day today or maybe its just the wine talking!!!

'

you dont just miss him, you miss your life, the life that you thought you were going to have forever.


The one thing I love about this site is knowing that what I feel and think are felt and thought by others. The ups and downs - others have been there, known that.

When your family and friends think you are moving on and then a bad day hits I know on here I will read of someone else going through or has been through the same.

Just to stop me texting I removed his number from my phone so that I would have to type the number in. This was to remind me that he wanted ow. They deserve each other and I deserve better.

I loved the man I married and loved him for months after he left. Believing his lies for months because my heart wanted to, even though my head knew better. When I see him he is in the body of the man I loved but his heart and soul have been taken over by an alien. It is not my ex in his body.

My 3 words 'Brand New Life'
