"Your wife has moved out and engages with other men. Your wife wants to liquidate so she has money to follow through with her new life without you.

You have no choice in terms of having a relationship with her she doesn’t want that."

What does that statement accomplish?

I'm not insane, or stupid. I've acknowledged all this.

In fact, I'm the one who told you all this.

I'm hurting. I'm ill. I'm depressed. I'm post-abuse, and dealing with depression. I'm scared financially.

That didn't sound empathetic. It sounded directive.

Like I said, if she'd died, most of the people in my orbit would be kinder and more supportive than I've seen.

How do I process this grief and depression when, even anonymously, I can't express how it's effecting me.

When I tell a friend what I'm going through and he says "eff that B", that isn't helpful.

If he says, "Whatever. She used you up and moved on. Move on too." That isn't helpful.

This hurts.
