A Year After Divorce

CW: Suicide

The person I swore to be with for the rest of my life decided other people were far more favorable. I was crushed. After many promises that this would never happen, it did. Here I am on the cusp of turning 29 feeling the lowest I ever have. I moved back into my parents house, two hours away. The place I grew up and gradated high school. Humiliated. Depression set in. I was done for. I knew how I was going to do it, it was just a matter of time. 10/31/2020 would be the last day for me, but I wanted to have a party with my friends first. We had to have a Halloween party. Well... it had to be ON Halloween. I dressed up. Got drunk, and hugged my friends and drank and had the time of my life. 

A little more than a year later, today in fact 11/15 I put an offer in on a house. They accepted. I'll be a homeowner by the end of the year. 

Please, even if you feel like this road block is far too much, it's not. You're at the precipice of greatness. You're about to see the most fantastic part of life.
