I met my husband when I was 31 and married him less than a year later. Now 11 years later I am still very much in love with him. My first husband who I married after we had gotten pregnant in college turned out to be a disaster. Four years later he walked out and shacked up with someone else, leaving me to raise our daughter by myself. In retrospect it was a godsend. He was abusive and slapped me around and derided me constantly. In the end I put my life back together with sheer determination. After finishing my Masters degree and getting some confidence back life began to work again.
The bottom line is this, It is never too late to start over. Just work on yourself. It takes time to do things differently and not believe the old dysfunctional messages that someone has abused you with. Divorce is horrible but it is not the end. Just continually tell yourself that you can do it and the best is yet to come
