I don't usually get that question due to the fact that I am single, but i have asked myself without much of answer. It's definitely the most painful thing I have gone through and I know that doing this on my own that i have limits, be it financial or emotional. They say that God doesn't give us more than we can handle, but I have to wonder where he gets this kind of faith in me, because i truly don't know how much more i can take.
I think all of us deserve a big hug and round of applause. This process takes a lot of courage and strength, most of which we didn't even know we had. I am so grateful for this forum.
