Hi Mosley12 - My husband and I separated in Sept of last year. It was a complete and utter shock to me. He was cheating on me and wanted out of our marriage of 3 years. We have a 6 month old ds (he was 2 months old at the time) I have moved back in with my parents which is actually 6 hours away from xh. I honestly didn't know how I would recover from everything but time really does help. My parents are great and love having us here. I am maternity leave from my teaching job and hope to find a new position around here in the fall. I don't want to return to where we were living before. I have no family there and it would be hard raising ds there alone. My ds' father has been out here 2 times to visit. To say it was hard, is putting it very mildly. To split up when you have a child together is the hardest thing ever. You will be tied to that person forever. I have alot of anger and disappointment in me towards my ex. I am working through my feelings of resentment and trying to accept that my ds deserves to have a relationship with his father. I feel horrible knowing that my son is going to have a "sometimes" father but I also pray that I will find someone new some day who will be able to be a positive male for my ds. I am scared to be a single mom but I know it will make me stronger if nothing else. Please email me at shalyn4 at yahoo.com if you ever want to talk or vent or if you feel alone. I think we could really support each other. Take care and keep your chin up!
