How do you move past everything?

I haven't moved on loads yet but its been about 8 months since we split up and baby is only a month old. I think, with the help of my family and more time I will eventually come to terms with things. I was utterly, totally devastated and heartbroken when he abandoned me pregnant but now I am starting to actually feel glad he is not in my life anymore.

Part of the reason i took being a single mum so bad is that i come from a secure family and my parents still love each other, so that is what I wanted. I think i also left a lot of things to late (i'm 38) and got complacent about contraception. Dont regret my baby one bit but would have liked to have met the man of my dreams, got married and had kids that way.
 
Moving on is never easy. Feeling alone isn't fun. Even when the relationship is terrible, you still feel sad and think it's better to be with the person instead of being alone. I don't think it's ever a good idea to be in a bad relationship. It's especially difficult when the other person finds someone new. That's really hard to accept, no matter how mature you are.

I am much happier alone that miserable together. And, if the guy is a cheater, just tell yourself you are better than that and deserve someone who will appreciate and treasure you.
 
Its hard no one can deny that, i was a completely emotional wreck when FOB ran off, LO is now 3 months and ive been on my own since i was 7 months pregnant. Im coming to terms with it all now, and now realise im glad hes no longer in my life.
 
Time! I just let time heal the break-up and told myself that as bad as he was a partner, he could still be a good dad, so I had to let him try.
It wasn't something we ever talked about, FOB hasn't changed as a person so I could never have had a conversation about the past for 'closure' but I think it'd have helped. It's a lot easier to be civil now that I am happy, but it's definitely better on Lucas. There's no horrid atmosphere as there's no resentment anymore, I'd like to think we act like a mum and dad are 'supposed' to around him, just not as a couple.
