6 weeks ago today...

I was sat at my old house crying my eyes out as my OH had finished with me. I thought my world was over.

I just wanted to update you and show there is hope out there for people in a similar situation to me.

6 weeks on, I no longer have that sick feeling in my stomach, I haven't called him begging to take me back for 3 weeks and I am HAPPY.

I am living with a relative, I have a long term temp job and I have no money worries;)well not many, my ex's parents gave me my half of what I put into the house and it has paid most of my debts off.

I have bought a little 2nd hand car, booked a weekend away with my best friends in a few weeks, my dogs are lovely and healthy and the future is looking great.

Please, everyone keep your chins up, you deserve better and it will get better for you :beer:I have moment where I miss things but I think I was doing it to make him happy and it was me suffering.

Keep smiling x:money:
