Is it normal to feel like you lost years after a divorce?
I’m 34F, divorced last year after a 5 year marriage. Sometimes I feel okay but sometimes this thought hits me really hard… like I lost years of my life investing in something that didn’t work out. People say that you have learnt what you dont need anymore and what doesnt serve you and even courage and all that. But emotionally it still feels like I’m behind in life compared to others my age. Career took a backseat and personal life just kinda went in reverse. Does this feeling reduce over time or is this something you just learn to live with?
