Hi WII! My H and I also had to deal with immigration stuff, 10 years ago. What a nightmare, and I thought if we could get through that, then we'll survive anything. Well, we did ... to a point! I still don't trust him, but I am still here, so we'll see.
It sounds like your W was needy, and you were an enabler. She also sounds like she had hugely unrealistic expectations. She's in for a shock when she's in the real world and realises that no other man is going to take that. We often never realise what we had until it's gone! Cliche, but so true.
Life is about change, sometimes not so drastic as D, but sh!t happens, and we have to learn to not only survive, but thrive. Oh grief, I think I just wrote a poem. Hahaha!
Thinking of ya!
