Your feelings are your feelings. Just because you're not depressed and hopeless now doesn't mean you will be later. I think given some of the information you shared (being an engineer) you are very used to thinking logically and not emotionally. Your logical mind knows it's over, you're sad but not devestated. That's ok.

I think when you read about the depression after 5 years it's not usually still over the divorce or end of the relationship but more likely the person attributing other things that have happened to that. No one can say if they would be less depressed if they were still married. It just seems that once a divorce happens every bad thing that happens to a person is because of the divorce. Not really true but that's the way an emotional mind works.

Anger is completely different. Holding on to the anger for years and years is just not mentally healthy. When a person does that they can never get to the point of happiness.

I think you should take your feelings for what they are, and not wonder about the future feelings that may come up. It sounds like you'll be just fine. I do have to say that I had to laugh when you said you were sure the time would come when someone else came into your life. I thought that too......10 years ago and so far nope. I did have one LTR in there but nothing since then. Sometimes life doesn't work the way you see it working. Now I'm to the point where I can't see myself married again. Of course I already had kids when i divorced so it wasn't as if I didn't have my chance to have a family.

--------------------
When we were together, you said you'd die for me. Now, I think it's time you kept your promise.
