Got my certificate of entitlement to a decree today. Even though I'm ok with things it still feels like I've been punched in the gut everytime something to do with the divorce comes up.
Just feel a bit bleurgh about it all and need some MN love!!

Thanks guys!
I'm ok about the divorce and things are great between the ex and I, we're still good friends and there is no romantic involvement there at all. I will always love him because he was such a big part of my life plus he's a great guy but for both of us the relationship is just not there anymore.
I suppose I'm just sad that this is how things have ended, I never in a million years imagined I would be 28 and divorced, especially not from him. Everyone always said how great we seemed together, even our tesco checkout lady got tears in her eyes when I said we'd split up Grin
I supposed I'm just feeling sad and thinking about what we had when we first got together all those years ago!! It's weird because I feel fine then something happens and if feels like my hearts been trampled a little bit more Sad

I was also 28 when I got my decree nisi. It for me was strange because although I was going through the process it was still unexpected when it arrived on the door mat.
I think what made me sad was that we had married for all the right reasons with all the associated dreams and that was no more.There was no animosity between us we just grew apart,
Things do get better with time.
[hugs]

I am only 23 and getting a divorce, i don think any one ever imagines it will happen, i thought my ex was my "forever" partner, and lover. Things change, our split was amicable and it makes me sad cos we went through so much together. I know he didnt want me to go, but i had no other option, and it does get better. I havent even got my decree nisi yet, but life is already moving forwards, i expect a lot of sadness when it does come through and with the decreee absolut as well. BUT i know life wasnt good being in that relationship and i am so much happier and although we have no contact deep down i know he is too.

Everyone seemed to think that although we had our differences and they knew that, that we would always be together. Life changes, its hard, but you do heal eventually, god knows the amount of healing i have done in 5 months is incredible.

I dont see myself ever getting married again, BUT i know i can find someone else to love me and treat me like i deserve to e treated.
