Even though he cheated on me and broke my heart, we actually parted friends and he knew I'd met my h, but we lost touch shortly after that and I never even got to tell him I was getting married let alone that I had a son. It's hard.
Sending more hugs, Echos. You will get through this, it just took me some time, I hope you can give yourself some time too and not be too hard on yourself.

Art, I didn't respond to this earlier because I was at uni and didn't have time to process. I want to thank you for sharing your experience and for the hugs. I've realised Ive just gotta grieve. Just let it hurt and go through it. Even though it was painful, standing in front of the block of flats we lived in together was helpful to me. I need to reclaim that part of my life rather than running from it as I always did before.
