I lost my trust for women and don't even want to try anymore because of the abusive manner in which my ex-wife treated me; yet I yearn for a woman to show me that it's okay to love again
Have you talked with your ex-wife about this?
I've tried but she doesn't listen to me
You shouldn't lose trust in all women just because of your ex-wife. your ex is only one person. There are plenty of women who wouldn't do what she did.
I hope you are right.
Your bad luck will turn around soon. Keep trying to meet someone special but in the mean time, live your life as best you can. You'll meet the ones you need in your life inadvertently along the way.
