Hi! You've come to the right place, the support is fantastic, and someone is usually here to help.
You sound as though you have a rough idea about what is going on, you plan on hanging on in the house for the sake of the children, which is the best thing you can do. You are doing very well.
It's still very painful, regardless of how well you have pulled things together. It's only going to get worse before it's gets better, so have you begun you "GAL" list? What sort of things would you like to do while your wife is re-living her teen years?
Oh, GAL isn't just for adults, maybe a group or hobbie that you and your two boys can join that will keep all three of you too busy to realize your wife is off in a different direction.... I see S9 plays baseball, but what about the winter months? Is there a YMCA near by where you can swim or play away from the house? Just a thought..... the busier you are with your own life, the easier it is to ignore the rollercoaster that will become the pink elephant in the room.
Next, what have you done to protect yourself financially? It's time to consider if she does have MLC, her next step will be to begin spending, WILDLY! Time to consider separate accounts and credit cards.... if it's there, she will spend it.
Keep the chin up, you will be feeling as though you are being put through the wringer.... with each twist, you'll grow stronger, and so will your boys...
Keep coming back..... There are some really great folks here, working their way through the same things you are. You aren't alone.
Blessings
Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you.........
