Is unhappiness in your DNA? That part. As a divorcee I can resonate. On this journey of love laughs and lessons, I am becoming my true self.

What an awesome read for me this Sunday morning. It made me think back about my divorce, although I didn't initiate it and was devastated at the time. Looking back, I should have gone to therapy. Were I am today, is happily remarried and you're so right - I believed in the "till death do us part", that's how I felt, but I know now, my creator had other plans for me. Looking forward to reading your book and contributing to this community.

Thanks, Delphyne. Your being happily remarried (I know that you are) suggests that you gained clarity on who you are, what you want, and what works best for you as a life partner. I’d be interested in hearing one way the divorce experience moved you closer to true self. And yes, I welcome your contributions to this community, helping us to lean on one another more.

It was like you said, "Goodbye, pleasing-others-or-seeking-their-approval." Although like I said before, I didn't know we weren't happy in my first marriage. I do remember, though always wanting to please other people and making sure EVERYBODY is happy and I didn't like confrontation. Now, I still don't like confrontation, but I will give my opinion or I will speak up for myself and I feel like now I do what makes me happy and to me that's moving me towards being true to myself.
