Saw those and suggested I Will Survive also. The prob I see is they're songs not about the abuse or finding new love, but the joy/freedom/empowerment they feel, which I think is a more important feeling and common theme than actually finding that next love. Rilo Kiley - Silver Lining is another good song that fits that theme.

There's gotta be a better fit, but Death Cab For Cutie - You're Heart Is An Empty Room is about the feeling of being single, feeling alone, but knowing it's better than being where you were. Written by a man though.
"Out on the street
Are so many possibilities
To not be alone
...
The flames and smoke climbed out of every window
And disappeared with everything that you held dear
And you shed not a single tear for the things that you didn't need
'Cause you knew you were finally free"
