Pat Benatar had it right…love is indeed a battlefield. It’s been a full year since my life suddenly derailed when the woman I was dating for thirteen years decided to cheat on me with another woman. The event threw me into a pit and I’ll be honest, there were plenty of times where I just wanted to give up on life. I’m glad I didn’t. I wish I could go back in time right now and tell my one year younger self that everything would turn out OK. It wouldn’t be easy, but life does have a way of moving on. This blog post will hopefully serve as hope to those of you who are currently going through what I did not too long ago.
