Marriage ended following an emotional affair. I know I pushed him away due to the lack of care towards me. He then had a emotional affair following grief of a friend. He repeatedly lied, said he had cut contact, they were just friends etc etc
However I was so hurt, lost trust…
Eventually admitted they were emotionally supporting each other, but took a year of me questioning/hurting for him to admit. Even told me I would have to deal with their friendship! His behaviour was gaslighting, lies and manipulative at times towards me.
Now I have been single for 6 months. At first I felt I could breathe. Now I worry where life is going. It’s not easy I have the kids 95% of the time and I’m exhausted.
I also worry the EA has continued and what if he wants to involve her with the kids.
If you have been in this kind of situation did it take a while for things to get better?
I feel like I’m having a delayed reaction to everything! Any tips?
