I was only married a short while to my wife but we were together a few years. Hard to believe it is over. It’s an amicable departure from one another but still it’s hard. I’m confused. I gave her a hug tonight and still feel so much love between us like I never want to let her go. But we fought too much and besides I had no spark for her in the end. It’s like I like her mind and soul but that’s it. There’s no chemistry. I love her more as a close friend. But it’s hard for me to let go that we’re no longer married and now friends. The child in me doesn’t want to leave that loving environment which he never had as a kid. Anyone have any advice how to deal with these feelings?

I wish that I did have some words of wisdom to help you through, but I don't. I've come up to this point several times in my life ~ my heart aches just thinking about it! You aren't alone.

Perhaps you should try seeing a T, to help you work through your emotions? Best wishes to you!

Jeesh, I don't think I could deal with those feelings!...but I can't deal with most feelings soooo....hehe, not the best to give advice to you obviously! I just wanted to say the way u write about the love feelings you still feel for her is beautiful. You could distract yourself from these feelings by focusing on moving on to find your "True Love". Now you're available to really find it...and that's something to feel excited about, no? You seem real sweet and women looooove that, trust me

Thanks keepgoing. We both cried tonight as I found a place to move to. So it will be for real when I actually move out next week. It will be hard to realise that we will no longer live together. But it just wasn't working out together. We both can't live together but it seems hard to live apart too. But we will both survive and move onto new relationships that suit us both.
