I am a soon-to-be divorced mama who has found an amazing guy.
Recently, I have been feeling bad for feeling this way, for being happy, because I am afraid of people judging me because it didn’t work out with my childs father. There is a long story as to why, but I feel like I have to hide this happiness, and it sucks, because I found an amazing guy who is EXACTLY what i need.
Help.
Don't hide that happiness. People will judge you for anything. Life is too short, do what makes you happy.
It's not about what ppl think.... you only live once... only you and God know what you have truly been through. Know your worth... and if this guy treats you like you should be treated then so be it... be happy happy mama
I left my toddlers father when he was a year old. Yeah there was a bit of judgement and what not but I never let it get to me because in order to be a good mom I needed to be a happy one. It took some time but eventually no one really cared anymore. 8 months later I met another man who was great and made me happy and my toddler took to him immediately and shortly after that I got pregnant again and surprisingly there was barely any judgement about that at all. A little over a year later I'm still with that man, we have an amazing little 5m old boy and I'm not even divorced from my toddlers father yet.
U and i have similar stories (except i am not pregnant). My daughter adores him, he is an all around amazing guy. Who was also going through a divorce at the same time as me. I am very happy. Taking things on the slow side, but happy. I feel like i am so much more cautious now too
We have been separated for 2.5 years. We just don’t have enough to pay for it to be done yet
I got divorced at age 21 a long..time ago.You can go to your local courthouse and pick up the package for divorce notarize a shit load of papers and you put an add in the paper has to run like 6 wks,you take a parenting class &it's based on income as well so that's make it easy as long as you don't have property together example house,cars,boats etc..
You, don't owe anyone an explanation. We all deserve happiness but, remember happiness1st comes from within Ourselves (not from someone else.) Sadly many men don't appreciate a good woman until they are gone. My advice because,I have been in your shoes is be cautious letting any man in your home , you are a Mother not just a single woman.Find out plenty about him from him &do your own research too.Good luck take thing's easy
I've been through a traumatic divorce. I had a rebound relationship. It's perfectly healthy. My best advice as someone who has been in your shoes. Take things slow and don't take things too seriously. Have fun but make sure your priorities are in the right order too. Good luck!
Don't tell anyone for awhile. Keep it to yourself until you know exactly where its headed.
