I'm a 32-year old divorce living near Denver, CO. I've been divorced for nearly 2 years. My "ex" had a porn addiction for two years (that he'll admit to) and I had an extra-marital affair. We had co-dependency problems. We had intimacy issues. I think our counselors didn't like us after awhile and felt like kicking us out. They said we brought "bad energy" and that they were trying harder than we were. All of which was true. They also wouldn't advise us to divorce, which I am now thankful for. I respect them for that...now:)
Since divorcing, my job contracts were not renewed twice (which basically means I got fired). I had a serious breakdown last summer that resulted in short term disability. Now I'm back working and gave myself a 25% raise and a better work environment than the other two combined. I've found myself again. I am exploring who I am and what God, church, and religion mean to me. I now know that I could survive almost anything. I am financially standing on my own two feet. I learned that work is over-rated. I learned that I don't need a lot of money to live my life on. I bought a condo and a new truck all by myself . I'm in a relationship that alternately feels wonderful and like a prison. That doesn't bode well...
