I am new at this, but in the past couple weeks when the bomb was officially dropped, I have found that even little things (note with rose petals) can be SMOTHERING. I don't know how many times in the past several months my W asked for space and no mushy stuff, I didn't really get it until she told me a couple of weeks ago that she didnt love me and needs to be independent. I've found clarity from this site, some posts more than others, but I will tell you that I've found that giving that space and GAL is great for me and my personal growth and happiness. I don't know how it will turn out with my wife and MC, but it does bring me some happiness to know that I will have grown. Maybe into what she needs, or maybe just into a better man.
