Divorce isn't an end; it's a different beginning.
I Met My Ex-Husband’s New Girlfriend
Three days ago, my marriage officially ended. I received an email from my ex-husband informing me that I was a free woman. It was about time. Although we only just separated in February of 2020, our relationship had been slowly dying for many years, bleeding out from a million tiny cuts inflicted by our words and deeds on a daily basis. We had been to marriage counseling three times in the past eighteen years and had nearly separated twice before. On an annual basis, my ex-husband would announce that he was done and our marriage was over, only to stay and tough it out a little longer.

When They Grow Up!
The marriage would come years later, but it’s a story behind that, first; let me tell you about why I decided to stay. Well, I had thought that I had found the right man. He was so cunning and warm with his words and so charming with the southern ways I fell totally in love with him. He did all the right things. And every day I fell more and more in love with him.

My Husband’s Mistress Can Keep My Husband, but I Want the Anthropologie Dress Back
Some women are predators. I’m not blaming her. Ok, I am blaming her entirely. I blame him entirely too. My husband was, technically, an adult when they met, even though he quickly regressed into a man with the emotional maturity of a teen in love.

Yet still I stayed
You know how when you watch a movie, you put yourself in the shoes of the actor/actress and you tell yourself how differently you would do things if put in their situation? How if you ever found yourself in an abusive relationship, you’d immediately get out before any real damage could be done? I was one of those people. I was wrong, but I was one of those people once.

Yeah! I'm single!
It does not matter how often anyone says, being a confident single woman is a desired goal, it will never become as focused on as finding love. Movies, songs, stories, friends, and ex-husbands will continuously remind me of the importance placed on the goal of finding a partner.

A Peaceful Life with my ex-husband: how did I get here?
It was March 17th, last year, when my husband Ricardo came to our bedroom to tell me these words: “I don’t love you anymore, and I want the divorce.” I remember myself thinking — “Ops! What is he talking? Oh fuck!”. So my brain did it all in two seconds to put some words in my mouth, so I asked him, “Umm, Why?” — painful but a needed question.
