A age 36-40, anonymous writes:

From the start, I was in a relationship for 5 yrs on and off he destroyed me, my self-esteem, everything! Then I went to a relationship that lasted 10 months, he did the same. I had a child by each of these men, the first one he took full advantage and turned my son against me, and took full custody and rarely even speaks to me...it's a long story...then the 2nd guy my daughter is only 2 months...found out he was married he left me after 10 months went back to his wife. Had nothing to do with me while I was pregnant, called me names, etc. Met his daughter once since then.

However, while pregnant I was in another relationship that lasted 10 months as well...I was happy at first. But things slowly started crumbling after my daughter was born. I feel like I can't be happy...sadly I'm still in love with both of my exes...and one of them is engaged and has my son with the life I'm supposed to be living with him, and the other is still in love with me, but won't leave his wife and thinks it's best to end all contact.

Obviously, I rarely ever speak to either of them...I just emotionally a mess...

How can I be happy again and finally let them go?

eyeswideopen agony auntWell at this point you will just have to pull yourself up by your bootstraps and put one foot in front of the other. You still have a daughter and a son to think about. Do you at least have visiting rights to your son? I'd consult with a lawyer about that whole situation if I were you. Each day will get easier. Both of your ex's are out of the picture so now you need to just focus on yourself. I also would make sure I didn't have any more children until I'm in a committed relationship. Best of luck, you'll be fine.

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

Because he had an attorney at the beginning and I didn't there toward to the end, and bc he charged me with an assault and battery for leaving a scratch on his arm, just a long mess, pretty much we were in the battle while I was pregnant with my daughter, and was more stable than I.
