She has since stopped speaking to me beyond just the business aspect of things.

But this is the context of our last conversation and this is just something that i wanted to express for my own benefit.

I said,

"Hun, i love you with all my heart and i will love you until the end of time. No one will ever hold the place in my heart that you hold. I didn't want this divorce, but i am now at peace with it."

"But, i have something i want to say to you. Do you remember when you had your hysterectomy?"

She replied, "Yes, of course i do."

"Do you remember that i carried you to the toilet, cleaned your private areas, carried you back to the bed and cleaned your surgical drains?"

She said, "I remember."

I said, "Why do you think i did that?"

She looked down at the floor and said nothing.

I said, "I want you to think about this as we move forward separately. Who in your life has ever given you that kind of loyalty?"

Again, she broke eye contact with me.

"And what did you give to the person, who showed you this level of loyalty, in return? Remember this as you move forward along the path of life."

She remained silent.

I felt so good after expressing this!!!!
