Advice from Annie Lane.
I had a suspicion that something was going on with my husband, but I didn’t have concrete proof for a long time. Then, one day, everything came crashing down. I came home to find a note: He had left.
What struck me as particularly strange -- and almost darkly ironic -- was that when I finally saw the woman he had left me for, I was surprised to notice that she looked like a younger version of his mother! When I pointed this out to him, he wasn’t happy about it at all. My relationship is beyond repair. How do I start anew even though it feels like the ground has been pulled out from under me?: The best way to begin anew is by taking it one day at a time. Instead of worrying about what the future might hold, focus on meeting new and interesting people, and allow yourself to feel excited about the possibilities of new connections. Starting a new chapter in life can be both frightening and rewarding, so embrace the uncertainty with patience and curiosity.
