It's not as fun as you'd think. There's a lot of broken people out there.

It's an emotional rollercoaster. Take it one day at a time. Check things off your bucket list, travel, try new things, but most of all enjoy figuring out who you are as a person.7 -

Crappy food choices aren't limited to Fridays at my crib.2 -

I've been married 7 years and unhappy for the last 5 ... I hear ya on the broken people .... My husband at one time told me he wasn't sleeping with me because of my weight. That was huge for me. I have anxiety now over and think everyone is judging me over it.1 -

I was going to say the same, but figured, meh, they all figure that out on their own eventually. It all sounds so fun and exciting to married people. The single life is just all fun and laughs and kittens and rainbows and tons of sex. Well, it would be if you want to be a skank hoe maybe. lol
I don't want that at all (being a skank hoe) .... But I was single and raised my son by myself for the first 7 years of his life. I'm not opposed to being alone. Doesn't bother me. But, there's no love nor affection in my marriage and it's very lonely.2 -

You cant change him, but you can change the way you look at yourself. Self acceptance is
something that takes time. Don't compare yourself to others, only compare yourself to the person you were yesterday. Strangers (including myself) often look at others out of curiosity more than judgment.2 -

Comparison is the thief of joy. I have to tell myself this a lot.
That's a good way to look at it.1 -

Sometimes being married is as lonely or lonelier than being single. Good luck with your new beginning!
Id say it's lonelier to have someone live with you and never hug or hold each other or..... Or .... Or .... So ya. Thank you for the well wishes.3 -

Absolutely this. I think so many of us struggle with this.
We are all *kitten* awesome in our own ways though. We just have to believe it.5 -

That's a good way to look at it.
It's hard, especially when people have been telling us to compare ourselves most of our lives, usually to something perceived negative so that we are somehow miraculously enlightened and we feel better about ourselves.... as a way to count our blessings, I suppose. But then we take it and use it as a way that is no longer constructive and we tear ourselves up over how we aren't what we are "supposed" to be. Don't let these thoughts convince you that you're not enough.
Not sure why that made me cry.... But not being enough is EXACTLY how I feel.0 -
Tonight is a stupid rough night

I was married 15 years and was made to feel this way also.
You are enough. It may take a long time for you to believe it, but you will.3
