I find myself feeling terrible guilt when I think of a future where I can experience a sense of wholeness that this marriage has never given me. I know it is best for both of us. And I believe we can remain friends once the hard pet is over. But I just don’t know how to move forward. What steps to take to minimize the pain for both of us. Any advice from someone whose been there and better on the other side is appreciated.
I once seriously (or at least made a lame divorce attempt and had years of confusion) thought about leaving (we have been married 35 years) but chose to stay. Now that the decision is made, I can concentrate on more productive things. The confusion and indecision is not any fun. I truly hope you get past that part
Yes, there are many at this forum who get "stuck" but perhaps many have also moved on and just aren't posting anymore. Prayers and hugs.
