Divorce Support Forums: Jealousy or Justified

Newlife...

I'm right there with you!! I know how it feels to be so ticked off because you are alone and they have someone. It just doesn't seem right does it? But ask yourself this...do you TRULEY believe that they have this fairy tale romance? Do you TRULEY believe that their lives are so utterly happy? Do you TRULEY believe that in the end, YOU will be the happy one? I try to remind myself of these things time and again. I'm not sure what your case consists of but in mine. My ex cheated on me, has cheated on her and still does. I know this because he's cheated with me. I only did it for the main point in getting back at her but when I realized it only made me feel worse I stopped it then and there. It hasn't happened now in a long time. So I just remind myself of this little phrase...he cheated with her so what makes her so sure he won't cheat on her? In time they will get theirs...just don't waste YOUR time waiting for it to happen. I know it's hard and trust me I need to practice what I preach because what do you think I'm doing right now on this beautiful 4th of July day? Yup, sitting here feeling sorry for myself because I'm alone, my friends are busy and my son is with his idiot father and his skank celebrating the 4th of JUly...just doesn't seem fair. I don't wanna go to the parade for fear of running into "them" as a family because that will surely throw me over the edge. So I'm gonna sit here, cook something to eat and go to bed early. Before I know it, Sunday will be here and my son will be home and I can go back to the "normal" of my life for another week. Hang in there...we are all here with ya!!
