Hi Jo,
It has been well over 3 years since my marriage ended and I don’t feel any grief for it anymore. I was married to a terrible person that had streaks of decency in her. Sometimes, I remember those, but mostly I remember all the horrible things she did. I don’t mourn that marriage anymore. I’m glad it’s over.
I don’t know how much longer I should be working through this and be ready for a relationship. I want one now and maybe that’s the problem, actually wanting it. The two women that I mentioned are non-issues now. I have no plans on contacting the one I broke it off with, and the one that broke it off with me, won’t be contacting me. I am just letting that memory of her fade. It is just going slowly.
Maybe I need to talk to a counselor again and work out some of the things that might be holding me back.
Thanks
