Starting over

[Cyclingmum212]

Husband and I separated in Feb. He moved out in April. Absolutely nothing has changed so I have had to push him into selling the house. We have 7 viewings on Saturday. I'm heartbroken. It's a lovely house and I'm not going to be able to afford much on my own. I never expected to be starting over at 49 with 2 kids. I know this is the right thing for us but how do I get me and the kids through it?

im going through the same thing, I’m 40 with 2 DC and coming out of an almost 20 year relationship. I know it’s the right thing for everyone involved but the doubts and grief are immense. It’s a rollercoaster.

I will also be looking at selling and downsizing. I’m sad, but looking forward to making new memories and putting my mark on somewhere new to call home. Too many ghosts here anyway.

I keep telling myself that I’m not the first and certainly won’t be the last to go through this, we are allowed our bad and good days. Sorry, I know what I’ve written doesn’t really help, but wanted you to know you are not alone 💐

Thank you! It's nice to know I'm not alone. Also a 20 year relationship. Ex is giving me grief over every little thing so at least once the house is sold I won't have to communicate with him as much.
