Have been following your post and am so glad you kicked this guy out of your life. Good luck for the future. You sound like a lovely girl with a steady head and bags of ambition. Hope you find mr right to join you on lifes journey. Someone who will appreciate your love and will make you feel like the most important person in his life xxx
Well done for getting it sorted quickly & cleanly. I think you might be pleasantly surprised how people/friends view your separation...I believe you will get loads of support. Hugs to you, it will feel strange for a while to be single again....however revel in the fact that you can be totally selfish for a change & totally self indulge..yeah.....onwards & upwards..you'll be fine..
Lumpy you will miss him. There will likely be moments when you feel lonely, wonder what you have done and think you will never meet anyone else. But as time passes so will those feelings. I suggest keep yourself busy, make sure you see your friends loads and maybe treat yourself to a new haircut or outfit. All of this will make you feel better and I promise you after some time (a month or two) you will look back on it all like a bad dream.
Last September I came home to find my partner stood in the doorway telling me he had moved out! I didn't see it coming and was utterly gutted. There's a whole story behind it (won't bore you) but will just add that I met a new man in January, we began dating in March and I have never been so happy. I could never have imagined that less than 12 months after the ex I would be so happy in a relationship but I am! It's that new door opening and making sure the old one is firmly slammed shut!
So hang in there lovely. x

And while it was horrific at the time looking back he did me a favour as I know it would have happened sooner or later as I married him on the rebound from someone who I thought was my sole mate :-(
Atm I'm very happy to be on my own but I know that when I'm ready I'll meet the man of my dreams xx
