Ooh, I really like your blog. A lot. Found my way over here via LiLu’s recent shoutout to you, and I’m grateful she pointed you out! Your writing is clever and relatable. If relatable is even a word.

(I *almost* wanted to be an English teacher, too…)

Very powerful, thanks so much for sharing. You’re brave for keeping it inside. My mouth flaps and I just have to know what others think. Maybe I want to know that it’s normal and I didn’t make a mistake…but really, what the hell is normal?

This story is so similar to so many people’s own story. I love that you are making us sit at the edge of our seats and WAIT! Ahhhh….. I know you have it all typed out and just copy and paste a little a time. Ohhhh, you!!!!
I really enjoy that you are taking us through all the stages of how you found true happiness. I think alot of divorcees are almost embarrassed to share when they’ve found someone new, someone they love… because in our own heads, things have been over for quite some time, but the people around us are only catching up to what has happened. It’s tough….
Can’t wait until tomorrow!

It’s like reading my own damn journal. I had moved away from my family and friends to be with my husband and his family, and now I am stranded somewhere where I know nobody who will speak to me. I knew, intellectually, that it would be lonely. But I didn’t anticipate the crushing loneliness on TOP of everything else. And I didn’t anticipate having absolutely nobody to hold on to. I have one friend in the area and together we are starting life over. I am in love but not ready to bring it out in the open yet, especially to the object of my affection. But shit is still hard. As hell. One day at a time, I guess.

First, thanks to LiLu for pointing me to your blog. I’ve sat here for the past twenty minutes reading your site and it’s…inspiring.

I am also a young divorcee althought I still struggle with that label. It holds so much stigma.

Anyway, I can’t wait to hear the rest of the story!

I’m with Geneve… the most powerful stories are often when you’re completely stripped down… and have to build yourself up again. You are a strong lady, m’dear.
