17 Girls With Their Post-Divorce Changes That Look Pretty Damn Good

This glam AF, well-deserved change: ladies really be getting there, and by there I mean, glowing up. Some people, change for the worse after a divorce, these ladies put their jockstraps uptight and by god they made something of themselves.

1.

After I got divorced I gained a whole lot of confidence. When the pain of my toxic relationship became scarier than the uncertainty of being alone, I was able to work up the courage to get divorced. I have no regrets about it. My life is so much better now."

2.

"My ex made me feel as though I was selfish for ever wanting to continue my passions. I made babies and that’s where my life ended. I wasn’t worth more than that. I got the courage to cut the negativity, take care of myself mentally, and be a truer version of myself for my kids. It’s been up and down, but, even at the hardest as a single mom, I won’t ever look back."

"After my divorce I gained happiness, independence, and a better life for my daughter and me. It was impossible to love or care about myself while trapped in a toxic and unfaithful relationship. I’m now five years post-divorce, and I’m remarried to a man who adores my daughter and me, and we’re expecting a baby boy in April!"

5.

"For 16 years, I put up with an abusive alcoholic. The physical abuse ended after he sobered up, but his emotional torment, gaslighting, lies, and manipulation were endless even as a dry drunk. Took me years to finally have the courage to say enough for the children and I. It’s been six months post divorce and I love my glow! Not living in a constant environment of eggshells, fights, and toxicity can do wonders for your body and soul!"

6.

"Being lied to, cheated on, and manipulated for 14 years can certainly change a person. I was very insecure, had very low self esteem, and the thought of leaving him left me feeling trapped and afraid. But I finally gathered the strength and now I'm more confident, more free, and, most of all, happy."

"I did tons of things to my hair that I didn’t want to, hoping he would call me beautiful. Surprise! It didn’t work. With the long hair I thought I couldn’t love, and 30 pounds lighter, I feel more confident in the random bathroom selfie than in the professional photo with full make up. It’s hard to love yourself when you are surrounded by hate, or worse, apathy."
