Thank You for these words. I too am not there yet. I am having a hard time detaching. I feel like this seperation and divorce is being shoved down my throat. I do not want this. I do not want to file but I think it may come and very, very soon not a choice but a necessity. Filing in my town gives me an advantage verses him filing in his town.
This weekend was very, very rough. Especially since he told me it was going to be his Valentine weekend. Rumor is he took her to the Daytona 500! Jerk!!! Thanks! Rip my heart out, Thank You!
I too am a teacher. 1st year teacher. I went back to school to complete my degree once my youngest was in Junior High. I certainly know about the little pay. It's great isn't!
We built our house. I am going to keep it, period!!! I do not care. It is my boys only place to ever live. It is in the country. My youngest son pole vaults and motocrosses. There is no way I am going to move him in town. Just make up your mind that H will have to figure something out for you to stay. It is not your fault he chose to walk out.
My H walked out and has never turned back. Funny thing is....no one including me knew he was going to. The DB book talks about those jerks that do just as my H has done....Walk out and never look back. I hope I am wrong. I know it is MLC plus a younger woman. I am thinking about hiring a PI. I would love to turn the tables and take control with sending photos to everyone of them. H denies OW and will to his grave unless I have pictures to prove him wrong.
Hang in there. Detach, Detach, Detach. If you learn how to, let me know.
