This year I've been through

  • him walking out on our 13 year relationship
  • the humiliation and expense of cancelling a wedding (he refused to pay more than half)
  • him being very angry at me a lot of the time and threatening to go for 50/50 access.
  • him denying he had a girlfriend - lying to my face when I asked him of he was seeing her - then coming to me for support when that relationship all went wrong.
  • me & my DS moving in with my parents, DS changing schools

Hoping for an easier 12 months to come!

Well, you've already come an awfully long way.

I'm sorry you've had such a hard year. Your ex had clearly behaved really badly.

At least he can't pull the rug from under you anymore.

I hope you have a wonderful, happy and pain free year ahead of you.

He came to you for support when his relationship broke down?????

What an utter dick. You've been through the mill op and you're still standing. Well done to you. It gets easier, I promise

Seeing it all written down has made me realise how much has gone on & the next 12 months should be. A breeze!

Yes funnily enough he's been nothing but nice to me since I helped him deal with the end of his new relationship Hmm

I'm in a very similar situation as my husband walked out a year ago too. What a shit year it's been! Hope this year is better for both of us Smile

Dont worry. In 2014 I lost my mum to cancer. My partner of four years dumped me with a note through the door 3 months later on the eve of my birthday. 2014 also saw my exh wife arrested for verbal assault and criminal damage against my 12 year old Dd. It was a rollercoaster! However met the man of my dreams right at the end of it and 2015 is amazing so far .The only way is up remember that Smile
