I’m sorry your struggling. Divorced and remarried here. You’re 100% right! But it will pass and be a distant memory at some point. Keep the faith!

Been there and done that about 5 years ago now. Remarried and all that now, but while the memories of how difficult it was have faded now, I haven’t completely forgotten either. Embrace how much it sucks and let yourself feel what you need. Just don’t get lost in it, and look at the new beginnings and what new things can happen.

Don't worry bro, this time will also pass

Very true, they are. I’m sorry you are experiencing that situation. Over time it will get easier, but immediately you just have to live with the difficult feelings. If possible, try to manage your feelings in positive ways like focusing on bettering your health and talking with others who are or have experienced something similar. Best of luck to you and take care of yourself.

Can't even imagine. My little brother is going through the same thing and even though he doesn't really talk about it much, I'm sure he's struggling a lot seeing the rest of us with our SO's while he's alone and switching off with the kids. Hang in there, time is the only medicine for heartbreak!

I am sorry to hear that you are going through a divorce OP. I went through that three years ago and the first year of holidays was definitely the worst. It does get better with time though.

Hi Fishes,

I got interviewed at infosys two days back.
When can I expect to hear back from them.
Also all the questions that were asked to me were written coding questions(Write block of code) none were verbal.I could write all answers but none was 100% correct.

At last I asked the interviewer about feedback as in where was I wrong. He said at couple of places and he explained me where was I wrong.

Do you all think I will be rejected?
