Coming to terms with the fact that my marriage was a failure was devastating and very difficult.
I hate failure and that divorce was a Number One failure in my eyes. It was the worst period of my life. Neither Desi nor I have been the same since, physically or mentally.
I went through a long period of time in that marriage when I didn't believe anything was my fault. I had to face what my part was, and only because of that difficult work was I able to trust a man again.
I had a really kind of yucky divorce and it was really challenging to get over that.
There was never a point in my life where I gave up. My marriage, as you know, fell apart.
I was so devastated by my second divorce that I had a nervous breakdown.
The divorce was the toughest thing in my life. It still hurts.
Divorce is never a pleasant experience. You look upon it as a failure. But I learned to be a different person once we broke up. Sometimes you learn more from failure than you do from success.
Although my marriage left me with three beautiful children, it also left me with a healthy dose of self-doubt, low self-esteem, and an extreme desire to be loved again. I was operating on empty, expecting to be paid in full.
Yes, I have 'failed' at marriage - a lot.
