Hi all,
I posted here in 2015 when my husband cheated with a friend and then I found myself back here in March 2023 when he did it again. That was when I filed for divorce.
Anyway, it's taken a loooong time. Anyone who claims you can get a divorce in 6 months in the UK is having a laugh, especially when there are kids involved and some debate over finances. And then you have to factor in house sales falling through and other hiccups along the way.
Anyway - the divorce was final at the start of May, I moved on Friday and the house sale was completed today. We are all finished apart from one pension still to be moved. I am gradually switching everything back to my maiden name.
We were still living in the same house until Friday. And honestly - it was fine. After being in a rage for a couple of months I eventually found I didn't really care. And even when the divorce came through, and when I moved out I felt very little. I think because I had mentally left as soon as he cheated again. I did all my crying the first time around.
We are civil. he borrowed my car today to clear the remaining things from the house. It's all fine. I think he's a fool. I think he'll struggle without me. I don't wish him any good or any bad because I just don't care enough about it. I think I would mind if he replaced me very quickly - not because I want him back though.
Best wishes to everyone else going through this.
