Is it odd to be happy I am divorced
It's just been so long since I feel free. Been married to her for 28 years. Life seems so different now being single.
Has anyone felt overwhelmed after being divorced

Hi Mike. I can sense both the relief and apprehension in your message about your divorce. It's not odd to feel happy about being divorced, especially if you feel it has given you a sense of freedom you haven't experienced in a long time.
You took a giant step/leap in recognizing and validating your feelings as they are your own. It sounds like your marriage of 28 years had been a significant part of your life, and now that you're single, you're navigating a different reality. I understand how this new chapter might feel overwhelming for you.
Would you like to talk more about the aspects of being single that you find overwhelming or exciting? Are there any specific challenges or opportunities you're encountering as you adjust to your new life? I/we at 7 cups are here to listen non-judgmentally and that too in a safe and confidential space to help you explore your thoughts and emotions.
Wow that's lovely my dear ❤️
Although you closed a chapter with the divorce, you opened a door to new beginnings. It takes time to heal, took me about 5 years. After all, I feel great. The divorce gave me the opportunity to find my true love. I kissed some frogs, and finally found him 7 years later.
