There will be no “why me’s” allowed here. It’s unfortunate, but the “happily ever after” you envisioned for yourself with your ex is no more. One or both of you has moved on from the marriage; whether it was emotionally, spiritually, or physically, the marriage has run its course. Wasting your energy and time on asking, “Why me?” will benefit no one. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI’m not saying it will be easy. What I \u003ci\u003eam\u003c\/i\u003e saying is that you need to remember that you have children who are looking to you for strength and guidance. This is not the time to wallow, crumble, or falter; this is the time to find your inner strength and press on. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo, first things first: Stop looking at the wedding video. In fact, push “eject” and take that DVD out of the machine! Put away all the old photo albums. Stop dreaming about what \u003ci\u003ecould\u003c\/i\u003e have been and start planning on what \u003ci\u003ewill\u003c\/i\u003e be. This is the time to dust off your knees, stand tall, and begin moving forward. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRemember—you are not on this journey alone. You have beautiful children who are going to need you now more than ever.
