I am about to leave my wife. She probably suspects that I am strongly considering it but I don't think that she really expects me to follow through with it all.
The fact is guys, I have had a gutful of her lies, hypocrisy, dishonesty and gaslighting. I was far from perfect as a husband and she left me in January 2008 but came back in May 2008.
I am still struggling with the notion that earlier this year I was a crushed and devastated LBS unable to sleep or eat. And now, just 9 months later I am preparing to leave my wife and take a job that I have been offered in Europe. Since we have no children, I am adamant that we do not see each other or speak with each other again.
Please have a look at my situation, and tell me if I am a bad man for doing what I am about to do:
I was a bad, bad husband and really in need of some work. I have spent the last ten months purging all the negativity, thoughtlessness, selfishness, anger etc from me and am a much better human being than I ever was a year ago. I also believe that with the bitter lessons I have learned, I will be a much better husband to whomever I marry in the future.
I do not think I remotely deserve the torment my Mrs has put me through this year - certainly not since May or thereabouts.
I need strength to follow through on this decision. Please give me your support.
best,
