The only way to do this successfully is 100% no-contact. No talking, no social media, nothing. You definitely need to think of yourself only here. As hard as it may sound, ya gotta cut her loose totally. Nothing but a memory.

Doesn't seem like you have kids, so move on. Next time you invest in someone, make sure it's worth the pain.

It just takes time brothers. Keep yourselves busy. Pick up some OT, go workout, hang with friends. Be free.

Good luck my guys

How long have you been divorced? Things will get better!!! Message me if you need someone to talk to about this. Sometimes talking about everything will help you worry less and keep pushing you forward.

I am on day 2. Don't have any friends here because it was just my wife and I that did stuff. Time is going by super slow and one minute I am fine and next I am not. This was my choice but still hard. We got this brother.

This is what so many men do in marriage. They invest too much of themselves into their wife, who can divorce on a whelm.

When they leave, it can feel like you lose apart of you. It just takes time to heal. If you catch yourself when it happens, and change gears on your own, you are paying yourself forward.

There will come a time you will not care what your Ex-wife is doing. And here is a dirty little secret, she is in the fearzone hoping that she can find and keep another man before it's too late. Time is running out for her.

You, you are now free! You chart your course anyway you want. Men don't expire as such until they are very old. You can get back out there and get remarried and start a new family. You could change careers. You can take up new hobbies and totally change your life, because as men age, if they take descent care of themselves, especially after 40 and 50, the game changes for the man as he gets older. He becomes more valued as many men have the best salaries and resources at these ladder ages.

If a woman has not found a man by 40 and 50, she risks becoming forever single. She can date and have boyfriends, but in these modern times, most don't marry at that age, and the one main fear most women have is dying alone.

Guys, we can go on any number of adventures and find a new life. And it's really hard restarting for so many newly divorced guys because they are at rock bottom. No friends, not a lot of money, messed up emotionally, and feeling like it might be the end. Then later on, once they wake up, watch out.

It's really all just a mindset you're trying to get over. Once you break those chains, life gets so much better. You have the time, she doesn't.
