I also want to commend you on making a big decision about your life and especially the future that you want for yourself. It takes tremendous courage to do so and so many people are not able, it’s kind of like an addiction, I’ve been through this too and once you take the first step just keep on moving forward, don’t look back because the past is over, it’s now all about you and making new friends, planning things that you want to do, best wishes for a happier life.

Thank you so much for what you said, it means a lot hearing from someone who went through the same experience.
I think, I am in a frozen state right now. I think, I am not courageous, It was too painful to be treated the way I was treated. Knowing who I thought I was with and who I was with are not the same people.
I am glad you did it, amazing. I hope, as some time passes by, I can make peace with what happened. I want not to grieve too long as life is getting shorter as we get older. If there is a silver lining, the whole experience made me more resilient, more resourceful, work on myself and become a better person. I did not lose my ability to trust people and men in particular. I was unlucky, but people are mostly good.
