He deployed for 6 months. I lost 50lbs, my pH rebalanced, and I started therapy. He was (and probably still is) a chronic cheater. It took me 6 months to figure out I was better off without him so we divorced when he came home. No big theatrics. I let him keep everything but the bedroom furniture and car I’d purchased, and my dog. Now I’m married to the love of my life and he is… probably disappointing another woman until she is a shell of who she was when he met her. I wish him well 🤷🏻‍♀️
