February 12, 2013....the coward asked me for a divorce over the phone. I called my parents who live 400 miles away and got in the car to come up here. I don't remember too much that day after the bomb drop. I just remember being in the fetal position in my bed and crying like I've never cried in my life.
February 12, 2014....got up this morning, woke my kiddos up, fed our 2 dogs and our cat, took my kiddos to school and told them both that I loved them. Haven't shed a tear yet. This could possibly be a good day.

My D was filed this morning. I hope I'm feeling the same way a year from now (hopefully sooner
).
So happy to read stories like this to know that it gets better.

Its already started well :)
But that's just a lot of water
Underneath a bridge I burned
And there's no use in backtracking
Around corners I have turned

Hugs honey! My XWH asked me to marry him 2/12/11... But I woke up like you today- no care in the world. Life goes on!!!
Once a cheater, always a cheater happens when your cheater doesn't have remorse.
Regret is not remorse- know the difference!

I'll echo those comments that its great to hear that over time, the hurt, pain and angst falls away to acceptance and maybe even happiness. Here's to a great day mof2! You deserve it!

Even if the rest of the day were to fall flat on its face, it will be better than last year by a metric shitload. Enjoy what you can!
Divorced the cheater and living my best life now.
The best thing about hitting rock bottom is that everything after that looks fucking fabulous.

I was so glad when that first year of "firsts" was over. Post DD first christmas, first birthdays, first everything. Year 2 was so much easier. 2 years since DD for me in a few weeks (18m from Final S) so I'm heading into my third year post DD.
I'm still mourning but healing nicely. Life is good.
I may have reached a point where I'd piss on him if he was on fire.... eventually!!
