Last week monday my wife of 22 years left. Said she has been unhappy for a while.She also said that she Loves me but isn't in Love with me anymore. She didn't bitch about me to much mostly about work, kids, money, house. I was completly shocked. We had problems about 10 years ago and we worked them out then, she said I was stuck with her for life even up to a few months ago but now shes changed her mind. Shes been seeing a counselor since may for being unhappy. She used to talk me me about the visits but one day she just stopped and I thought okay shes cool with me and didn't want to talk to me about the other stuff. We were also snapping at each other more than ever and I just decided to talk to her as little as possible to prevent a fight as it seemed most talks would lead to. She says shes 100% sure but then says this might not make her happy either, she might come back in a day ,a week, she doesn't know. She says she doesn't know what she needs to do to convince me shes wants to leave so she took off her rings, told me shes filling out paperwork.
Make no bones about it I'm no angel either. I'm shocked and so is everyone that knows about it on both sides of the family.
I know I've tried a bunch of the wrong things already with some good things. She wants space and i'm trying to give her that as much as possible. there have been a few days I waited for her to call and saturday we didn't talk at all. We have had some good talks since this has happened but she says its too late. She is going to ask her counselor if I should go in with her.
I'm lost,hurt, and think its unfair to me and our kids but I don't know what to do anymore other than give her what she wants. There is no other guy involved as I totally believe her and trust her when I asked.
