Right now your partner simply cannot exist in your mind as a partner. She must exist as a co-parent and I am not even certain you remotely understand what that means.
I just googled co=parenting and was reading several sites on it...and for some reason the more I read the angrier I got.
The main reason being...having to "co-parent" is a crock given that she left, because if she hadnt left, it wouldnt even be necessary.
It just really eats at me that she gets to leave and have a care free life and in addition to the personal crap I'm going through just by her leaving I have to continue to go through more crap on top of that. It's like it doesnt end for me.
