.......I received a letter from a man I didn't know telling me my then DP had been having an affair with his wife.
Unfortunately I didn't do what I should have done then and kick his cheating arse out. I pleaded for us to try again as we had a 2 year old DS.
He pretended to try but I knew if was over and eventually on Easter Sunday our relationship ended. I was in pieces, my world was coming to an end, I would never be happy, I didn't want to be a single mum etc...
Thankfully I had the funds to move out and buy a new house back in my home town. So 6 weeks later I left with my DS to start a new, scary life.
It hasn't been easy (particularly as my DM passed away one month after I moved) but 12 months later here I am, alive, happy, settled and finally over the cheating bastard.
I am off on holiday with my DS alone next month. I have lost 2 stone, given up smoking and now exercise regularly. I have more time to myself now than I ever did. I am not a skivvy anymore, breaking my back to look after a verbally abusive bastard who never appreciated me.
I have a nice new man interested in me. Whether it goes any further I don't know yet but it's nice to be wanted!
I did post a year ago under a different name and got some great advice, particularly from Cog and AF who I think are amazing! Thanks ladies 
So this is just a post to say to all those ladies currently going through the hell I had 12 months ago - You WILL survive, don't put up with being treated like shit, life goes on and it's a cliche but time really is a great healer.
