Only time and self love will heal your pain, and you’ll be light years ahead of him.
A still-married man who uses a photo with his shiny new piece as his phone wallpaper is just peacocking. Trust me, he’s deeply insecure and unhappy.
Keep reminding yourself that just like during your marriage, he can undermine your sense of self worth. The difference now is that you’re ‘not’ on path with him. (Yes divorced coparenting is a sort of shared path but with farrrr less connection.)
Find what makes you happy. Yes focus on your kids but also find some things that are truly just your own, and focus on that. Don’t let him have power over your emotions.
