STBX was quite controlling. I'm now struggling to find out who I really am because I've had 20 years of someone else's opinions being more important than my own. Now that there is nobody to seek aproval from, how do I know what I want? I know this sounds really silly, as if I don't know my own mind but I'm so used to almost having to propose something before it's decided- running everything past him to check it's ok- that I'm drifting a bit. I am acing the practicalities of life, so running a home full time job and my 3 lovely boys (that he said he was scared I couldn't do on my own- BOOM put that in your pipe and smoke it) but it's the extra curricular stuff that is foxing me. Any suggestions?
