Someone please perk up my evening and tell me about meeting someone after abusive relationship plus one dc!!

[Lookingforabetteryear]

So I'm 27, with a baby, recently out of an abusive relationship. I am not ready to meet Someone yet as I still need to deal with Hurt and anger from ex buttttt am seeing lots of friends get engaged and married. Happy stories/ inspiration needed!!!

The good news is that you're out of the abusive relationship and you're still plenty young enough to meet someone else at some point.

Try not to focus on everyone else getting married and engaged around you; just take time to look after yourself and the baby for a while.

Stop trying to compare yourself by relationship status,its permissible to be single
You have baby,youre both safe.frankly that in itself is brilliant.be happy in the moment
You need to find your own satisfaction,whether its boxset and cuppa.or baby and you time

And when baby old enough to understand tell them of your courage
That mum got out of an abusive relationship
And give your child pointers about the bad uns to avoid

True true!

Im in a very similar situation as you OP, and intersted in what other posters have to say as need encouragemebt myself. How are you dealing with what has happened to you if you dont mind me asking?

I'm unable to talk about what I went through but, I have a gorgeous daughter and have found happiness again. I can't stress enough that it's ok to be alone, despite what others are doing. Take time, deep beaths, there is no rush, it will be ok, you've done the hard bit. I never thought I'd be as happy as I am now, it happens OP, trust me
