My ex husband told me he is getting married when he came to pick up our son. Its not a surprise as he has been with his partner for 5 years and im lucky that she is a nice person who treats my son well. I congratulated him as we have a good relationship. But after he left I had a good cry. Not because I have feelings for my ex, just because I am so far away from being loved up with someone. I have been single a year and a half after ending a 3 year relationship with a man who cheated on me, lied and generally was manipulative. I feel like I'm standing in the way of my ex husbands new happy family with his fiancee and my son. I feel like it would be better if I just didn't exist. I feel so low... I'm so angry that I wasted three years with the wrong man. I know its not the be all and end all to be in a relationship, but I grew up in a very violent chaotic home and its all I've wanted....a happy ending. I guess I'm not looking for advice just someone to say that they have been in this situation and I won't be alone forever. Im thinking of trying online dating but its all new to me.
