Embracing The Unknown: Newly Single Women Need To Trust Their Intuition More Than Their Exes!
You see I’ve been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can’t remember your name
’Cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain
A Horse With No Name, America
“I divorced my husband. Why did I divorce my husband?
I divorced my husband because I was making a certain amount of money. I divorced my husband because I thought I didn’t need him anymore. I divorced my husband because I had this senior position at work and thought I held the same position at home.
I divorced my husband because I thought I was better than him. Because I had my degree. I divorced my husband because I thought a successful marriage meant I was up here and he was down here. That is not success. That’s fucking sickness.
I found myself divorced and out there looking for love in all the wrong places. Fucking this one and that one and that one…and my body count going up and my value going down: I’m just going to call it like it is. All the while my husband found somebody else, building a relationship and building a life with them.
