You were married to a bully. It will take a long time to get past that.
You are still tied to him more by finances and the house than even your daughters.
The thing to learn now is “What is a good match?” I didn’t discover that until I was 54. My life is now like the happy ending of a romance novel
I have often thought that the bravest thing a woman could do is go out on a date
Good luck.
