New Relationship
Notifications OFF
Has anyone managed to successfully start a new relationship with someone? I am considering seeing where a connection I've made goes, but with this nightmare constantly in my mind I don't know how to move on. Have you managed to tell a new partner about what has happened? How did they take it? I've already been asked if my children's dad is involved in their life. He is but supervised only, how do I even explain that. Any help/ advice would be appreciated. I don't want to run away this time

Hey yes I did and its the best thing I done. The knock happend in april 2022 and still awaiting a court date. I was married to the offender . I got divorced in August 22. I started a ne new relationship and I was fully honest with him and what my ex husband done . And he was totaly supportive , infact he was amazing and he's been my rock . Go a head jump at it strart that new life and feel happy x
Hi, yes. About a year after the knock, I moved abroad to start a life with someone I knew decades ago. It was disastrous. It wasn't all my fault, he turned out to be a narcissist but I suppose I simply was never going to be able to trust again. X
I have. We were friends before the knock. I told him I was separated but not why. He found out through the grapevine. He has been v patient with me. Not sure the relationship is going to go anywhere but having a fun time whilst it lasts.
Thanks for your responses. It's getting to the point that I'm going to have to say something. Wednesday is court, so once I know the full facts I plan on telling him. We've gotten to know each other really well.
it is hard as can only talk when my little one is asleep, which sometimes can be late/ overlap with work etc.
