It's funny when I think about it, but I've had a list of favorite music for each stage of "The Shitty Mess" as I not so affectionately call it. They've helped me to cope as I've moved through them.

This may have already been beat like a dead horse in D/S, but just thought I'd pass along my list of favorite divorce songs....

Blind - Lifehouse

My Give A Damn's Busted - Jo Dee Messina

In the End - Linkin Park

The Walk - Mayer Hawthorne

Fuck You - Cee Lo Green

Gives You Hell - All-American Rejects

Better Off Without You - The Clarks

Baby Bitch - Ween

Hailie's Song - Eminem

I'm Movin' On - Rascal Flatts

Fighter - Christina Aguilera

Have A Nice Rest Of Your Life - Randy Travis

Even A Fool Can See - Peter Cetera

Cold Hearted - Zac Brown Band

Time For Me To Fly - Reo Speedwagon

The Heart Of The Matter - Don Henley

I'm Still Standing - Elton John

Any suggestions for adding to my list would be much appreciated.

Me-BH Her-XWW | B/ 59 on D-day (11/17/11) | D final on 10/1/13 I'm Lovin' life again!

I was stuck on Godsmack when ex-asshat and I split... if you want good and angry, "I Fucking Hate You" and "I Stand Alone" work.

Not so much a guy song, but i'd think, "I will survive" by Gloria Gaynor would be a good addition.

Me: Creating a better life for myself
Her: Somebody else's problem
Married: 22 years
2 sons at home
1 son in college
Divorced on 9/4/14!
Often it's the deepest pain which empowers you to grow into your highest self.

Oh, and we can't forget "Before He Cheats" by Carrie Underwood.

I may or may not have done one of the things in that song. Just sayin'.
