That's what my wife did. She doesn't make decisions lightly, which was why I knew as soon as she said it was over that it was most definitely over. Neither of us was really happy, but she was unhappy enough to want out, while I was content to foolishly wait for the spark to come back. I'm actually proud of her for being brave enough to take that step and tell me she was ready to leave. That's not an easy thing to do at all.
