Thank you for dropping by my thread and sharing the words of encouragement. I certainly need every little bit that I can get! Our situations are extremely similar. Things seemed very normal leading up to when she dropped the bomb. We weren't arguing a lot, we were going out with friends and we were spending time together. The last two years our marriage was on more of an autopilot. I was working on my MBA and finished it in October '08. I started jogging with her and ran my first 5K with her in Jan '09. Things seemed to be heading in a good direction.
My MIL has stated that she doesn't understand what is going on and that she had no idea that her daughter was unhappy in the marriage. Her best friends didn't have an idea.
My hard part is to try and let go of these things and just play the hand that has been dealt to me. I truly love her and miss her deeply. I feel very guilty for taking all of our time together for granted, especially while I was working on my MBA.
The one reality that this forum has taught me is what woman would want to come back to an emotional train wreck. I have to get my crap together and be happy with myself. I have never known an adult life without her, but I need to get comfortable with myself now.
