3. Focus on the good part
Now that you have forgiven them and made peace with the divorce, it’s time to focus on the positive side. You have more time for yourself, you won’t fight anymore, and you won’t go to bed angry. A divorce is not the end of the world, even though it can feel like it.
You have to accept the fact that you are single again, and focus all your attention on yourself. You will feel sad from time to time, but the memories that you and your partner shared will always be there. You have to keep in mind that you were a whole person before your marriage, and you are still one now. Don’t beat yourself up by asking what you did wrong. A marriage needs two people to function, don’t forget that!
4. Prioritize yourself
Invest time in doing what makes you happy. This can mean a new hobby, spending time with your children or your grandchildren, traveling, getting a different job, the possibilities are endless. Start a new routine, do something different and something that you’ve always wanted! Who knows what you will end up discovering about yourself?
5. Give yourself time
Don’t forget that you won’t get over a messy divorce overnight! Healing can take time, and you have to let yourself feel all the emotions. Don’t rush anything, don’t try to behave like you are not affected. You won’t be sad forever, and you won’t be single forever!
TAKEAWAY
Just like we’ve previously said, a divorce is not something that you won’t get over, even though it make take some time! Be gentle with yourself, be patient and everything will turn out the way you want!
