Meeting "her" was definitely a strange moment, and it took me a while to get past the "how the fuck are you allowed to be happy after what you did to me?" stage, but I have gotten past that...anyway, found this to be an interesting read on moving past the divorce

Good read. And I agree with it all. I also had that feeling as he met someone new immediately after I left (weeks after) and they have been a hot item since. That definitely messed with me big time. SO MUCH messes with us during/after divorce.

The thing is we CAN feel whole again. yes, baby steps!
