Bottom line, the only two positives from a divorce will be that HE might be happier (no guarantees) and our son might get into a better school district if I move away. Otherwise, it will all be worse.

I'm scared...I don't want to be a Single Mom for my 40th Birthday. I don't want to lose everything I have worked the past 20 years building all b/c H is depressed and can't seem to find any happiness with me.

I know that I DO HAVE A CHOICE. But the choice I want may not be the same that he wants. That is why I'm such a wreck!
