[quote=Anonymous]I'm finally getting divorced after a six year separation! At first I hoped the separation would be a wakeup call for STBX in terms of getting him to addresses alcoholism and some mental health issues. Then I was just distracted and depressed. (Pandemic, some family health issues, work). I knew the marriage was unlikely to ever be a happy healthy one but I just did not have the energy to get divorced. We were living separately so it didn't seem that important. And I had no interest in dating, and could not imagine ever marrying again. Kids were already in college so it wasn't about the kids. I just didnt feel motivated to try to date. It felt absolutely exhausting, just thinking about it.

But, a year ago, I met someone great and that finally prodded me into moving forward with getting divorced. I had convinced myself I would never want another realtionship. But in hindsight that was depression speaking. I am so much happier now.

That being said I am also a little more cynical than I used to be. I love the man I am dating and can imagine us spending the rest of our lives together. But I can't imagine marrying him any time soon. Maybe in a few years, if we are still happy together. But doesn't feel like there's any rush.[/quote]
