Divorce is finalized as of this morning. Things moved incredibly quickly since we don't have kids and didn't go after each other's assets. 2.5 months from D-day to now. That might be a record?

She wanted to move quickly because she is already preparing to remarry her affair partner (after meeting him twice). It is pretty wild to be replaced so quickly. She did psychedelics with him the first time they met and she now feels that they are soulmates after having some sort of psychedelic bond with him.

I know her next "marriage" is going to ultimately crash and burn, and part of me hopes she realizes the mistake she made. But part of me will always care for her and I feel bad about the future pain she has in store marrying this guy.

Regardless, I need to quit thinking about her and focus on me and this next chapter.

For the rest of my fellow men in the trenches right now: keep moving forward and avoid revisiting the chapter that is now closed. For those of you having to deal with custody issues, asset battles, etc., you have my utmost sympathy. Going through this without those variables is hard enough. I can't imagine having those extra obstacles. Each of you have my upmost respect and I'm confident if (actually, when) you get to the other side of this, you will be able to handle anything that life throws your way.
