[quote=Anonymous]Thank goodness you didn’t have kids with him!  Your life isn’t over, it is just beginning.

Get yourself a therapist and focus on yourself for at least a year.  Why did you stay so long in a relationship that gave you nothing?   What are you going to do to give yourself what you want?

Now is the perfect time to think about boosting your career!  Do you need to go back to school?  Are there credentials that can help you move up the ladder? Professional activities you could be more involved in?  If money is a problem, think about a second job, a side gig or monetizing your downtime by babysitting or dog walking or housesitting.

If you’re anxious about children, look into freezing eggs, and IVF and getting a health eval so you know what your options are.   There is still time - many women don’t have kids until their late 30s. I had my first at 34 and second at 38.  But my choice of husband/dad was terrible and we divorced when they were very young. What I wouldn’t give to be able to go back and make a better choice in father for them!

You still have a chance! Look at this as the opportunity it is!
