Read on Divorce message board: “I am used to being alone now, I can take care of myself, but it still feels very empty inside.”

My thoughts, exactly.

That begs the question: what’s missing? Do you feel empty because you miss the person you were with? Do you miss the relationship with that person? Or do you just miss being in a meaningful relationship? Or is the emptiness a result of giving your all and not getting what you expected/deserved/needed in return?

I don’t have answers and maybe neither do you. But I want you to know I hope you hang in there and I really wish you the best. You need to find your answers and let time do its work. You’re miles away - both literally and figuratively - from where you were at this time last year, and next year you’ll be light years ahead from today. ;o)
