Has anyone that separated from the offender found it ok to move on and if and when/how did you explain about your separation?



I mean I understand to wait until something serious could happen but at same time I'm a single parent what if all I meet is single parents and due to what's happened they choose not to start anything with someone that was married to an offender?
Will we live with the consequences and blame forever? I've seen social media posts of people showing their revulsion for anyone involved in these lives... it's quite frankly frightening.

I am very open and tell folk what has happened to me. I've done nothing wrong and have got nothing to hide. Nothing to be embarrassed about. Yes I've lost friends along the way - but we're they really friends in the first place?? I found it easier once I stepped away from the marriage and anyone I've been told has been sympathetic.
