My wife and I have been at odds for the last several years mainly over the fact that she wanted to sell our house so that we could move across town to be closer to our son. The real reason, however, is that her parents relocated and bought a house right down the street and she couldn’t stand having them that close. I get that, but I’m only about 7 years away from retiring and I really didn’t want to take on a larger mortgage than the one we already had. We separated for about 9 months and during that time we would still go out together and it felt like we were becoming close again. So she moved back home on the premise that I agreed we would sell the house and move. We subsequently sold the house, which is something I really regret doing now because in the area she wants to live we can only get about 1/2 the house we had before for the same money, which I was afraid would happen and why I didn’t want to do it in the first place. Now I am severely depressed and angry and resentful toward her and I feel like I just want to give up on everything. Having a very difficult time functioning at work and feel like I’m losing control of every aspect of my life. I have an appointment with a counselor but that wont be for two more weeks. Just need an ear right now
