I’m still in my head today. I mentioned talking to my brother about compassion. I see my wife as this injured, damaged soul who won’t ever see her own contributions to her situation and who probably won’t ever have peace. Her connections with people will become more shallow over time. And she’d pull us all down with her on her way down if she could.
This is called bargaining. It’s part of the grieving process when a relationship is breaking apart. It’s important to remember that if it was in your wife’s power she would take it all from you and leave you homeless.

That’s hard to accept when it’s someone you loved.
