I divorced my ex 9 years ago after he cheated on me. I knew her, of course it was his younger, prettier work colleague. It was brutal. He literally went from being my soulmate to a monster overnight. We know the story, many of us have lived it.
It took a lot to get through the divorce, he pulled every trick in the book to try to break me. But I got there, the judge ruled in my favour and after 3 bouts of gruelling therapy I have been in a much better place for some time now. I've even managed to bag myself a lovely DP and we're great together.
But for the last few months I keep dreaming about them. I've always slept badly and had vivid dreams but recently it's about them all the time. I'm in their space, and they are happy together and I'm watching them as an outsider and lonely. I wake up in the morning feeling the pain of our separation all over again. I want these dreams to stop, but I don't know how. Maybe I'm just subconsciously processing it now that I'm in a better place but it hurts and upsets me every time I wake up. Is there anything I can do to stop this happening?!
