Also, just because she has some legal help don’t assume she has the upper hand. Lawyers bluff and play games too.
This self blaming is largely due to your being encouraged to believe the failures are your fault. However, the fact that you deeply loved your wife and she rejected you can lead to devastating emotions. However, this is not the kind of rejection that can be prevented. Bottom line is your wife doesn’t love like you she is a user and manipulator. This is something I had to learn to understand too. This is how my older sister is and she lives in her own delusional world and used her own parents for her own financial gains.
These people can act like they care but they don’t, and can be cold and selfish.
Be very patient with yourself as at times it can get emotionally overwhelming. Others can relate. ❤️
