I saw her a couple of days ago. She didn't look good. Saggy, tired, worn out... she's binging on chocolates at night, by the looks of the garbage that's coming out of her room. My guess is that she got dumped by the other guy.
I'm giving her space.
I started my new job. It's fabulous, but a long drive.
My relationship with my children has never been better.
Who knows what's on the horizon? I'm just working on myself now.

She stayed out a bit late last night and came home to snap at the kids. A flurry of text messages came to our daughter, who was hanging out with me. "Get your lazy ass down here" was one. Apparently she didn't clean the cat litter box out.

Doesn't pay much, and it's a drag to commute, but it's nice to have my own income she doesn't know about.
I found a fab apartment today. I doubt it'll still be around when I'm ready to vanish, but I have faith there'll be another waiting when that day comes.

Within the last 24 hours I've signed a lease and filed for divorce. I'm supposed to wait until the 10th but have begun moving now. My son is nervous.
I feel sad, but good.
My wife deserves the lifestyle that she is accustomed to. This is what I tell myself when I start to feel sorry for her. She alternates between crying/moping and pretending she's glad to be rid of me. I'm sure it's confusing for all of us.
This will probably be my last post on this forum for a while. Thanks to everyone who responded. I wish all of you well. This board was a catalyst for me finding a better life, and while I don't see my marriage being saved, I am grateful for second chances.
Peace,
