Feel stuck, angry and sad, all at the same time.
Hi!
I am really stuck right now, nearly one year on, I feel I gave it a go and the right thing to do is walk away but I just keep thinking about how good things could be and the thought of being alone after building a life for 17 years feels like such a waste.
I don’t want to see the look on my son’s face when we have to tell him we will not be together anymore.
Simultaneously I am fighting the urge to exact revenge on the other guy. Not physically but I can shatter his credibility through mutual contacts and really mess up his life like I feel he has done to me.
I know I should just move on but seem unable to; I am constantly tired, drained and emotionally can’t take much more.
Has anybody been through anything similar?
