O/T Hi (poss sens)

Ruth I am so glad to hear you are picking yourself up. Time will be a great healer believe me after a 23yr relationship & then a 5yr one with an 8 month marriage, I have been there.

There are lots of new & exciting things ahead & I wish you all the luck & happiness in the world. Don't be a stranger here you have lots of friends. x

I'm glad you've posted and let us know how your getting on.

You sound really positive though and think you were so brave to actually make the decision to not be messed around.

Everything happens for a reason so keep your head held high - I have a good feeling about you ?

Hi ruthy,

ETA oh spooky sherrie, I hadnt read your post and we wished for the same thing! Ruthys got it double now! x

Am really glad to hear you are doing ok considering the circumstances... you are one brave lady and you definitely seem in the correct frame of mind to deal with everything. Things can only get better, and trust me they will ?

Hi!

I know you don't know me but I just wanted to say I think you're being amazing! Keep being so level headed about things and you will ride this storm (sorry for the cliche, I know they don't help but I couldn't think of another way to put it)!

Hi Ruthy.

Good to hear from you. You really do seem positive and I think you are really brave for making such a hard decision.

You've probably heard it hundreds of times already, but time really is a good healer. Keep your chin up and remember to keep popping on here from time to time - we are always here to cheer you up.

Hi Ruthywuthy,

So pleased to hear you are doing ok. I have been in your situation except we were engaged without a wedding date so I can understand how low and rejected you feel. But a year after all that happened I met my now h2b and couldnt be happier. Even happier than the first time round which I didnt think was possible. In now see that it was all for the best. Like the others have said stay strong and we understand how hard it must be for you to come on here but we would love for you to keep in touch xx

Hi Ruthy, am so glad you posted,and you sound remarkably level headed and strong. Good luck to you, and I really hope 2009 is a much better one for you, with all my heart.

Hi Ruthy, REally glad you are doing ok. You sound very postive etc. Here's to 2009 xx

It's so great that you're being so strong and positive! A new year will bring good things to you i'm sure! x

Hi honey,

I'm really sorry I have been crap at emailing but you know I'm here for you. You have done so well to keep going the way you have and nice to see you popping on.

RW glad your doing so well. You have been very brave and i hope you keep getting stronger and we see you back here very soon.

Take care of yourself x

I'm so glad you've come on here and let us know how you are. I can't begin to imagine how hard this must be on both of you, as I'm sure it would be easier to cope withg if he had done something wrong so that you could be angry. Instead it is just very sad.

My heart was broken when my ex split up with me the day after my sister got married because he said he could never see us going that way. I never thought I'd get over it, but your heart does heal.

You are incredibly strong and you are thinking clearly and rationally. Take care. x

Hi ruthy,

so glad to hear from you.

I'm really glad that you've managed to pick yourself up, and I'm absolutely certain that there are many happier days ahead of you,

much love,

Ali xxxx

Hello Ruthy - thank you for coming back on here and sharing with us. As others have said you sound extremely brave and strong in the way you are dealing with the situation, so keep hold of that as much as you can. You will come out of the other side and I honestly hope you can find some laughter and happiness in 2009.

I'm glad you realise you deserve the best and not a compromise. Here's to 2009 and the new promise it brings. Take care x

Thanks for letting us know how you are Ruthy. You sound like you are doing amazingly well. Your new pad sounds great too.

Take care of yourself and remember us on WP and pop by again when you're ready.

? for you ruthy. Remember you are still a part of Hitched and OT is always there for you if you need to have a vent or some support.?

Ruthy!!!

So glad to hear that you're on the mend (albeit slowly), as you say at least he had the balls to do it sooner rather than later (unfortunately in my case ex did the 'too late').

Your new home sounds fabby, lots of parties and get-togethers in the new year then.

Big hugs for being lovely, lovely you ?

PS - if WP is too hard, then come over to OT ?

Ruth - so nice to hear from you.

You sound incredibly strong all things considered.

You seem to be doing ok which is great news and you're right not to accept anyone who is less that 100% commited to you.

Thanks for coming back and saying hello

Thank you for all the lovely comments and well wishes...they're very much appreciated!

I am sure 2009 will bring good things for me. In a really cheesy way, I'm just really looking forward to indulging myself and treating myself to whatever I want. I've already had my hair down and since I've lost a stone and a half in weight, I'm concentrating all my efforts in getting lots of lovely new clothes.

My friends have been amazing. They're giving up Valentine's to take me somewhere sunny and hot for a week to take my mind of things...and then also for a week in September when the wedding would have been... I really need to be distracted!

Anyway..hopefully I'll be properly around soon. Thank you a million...really...you're all wonderful people.
