Bond, Your responses sound thoughtful. I'll reflect more before responding fully.
But so you know, while I do believe it takes two to make a M work, sometimes it really does just take one person to divorce...but from what you say, so far (again, I'll give this real thought shortly) you seem to have probably done too much mind reading and that can be due to conflict avoidance, fear of some sort, or even laziness. Regardless, I suspect you won't do it "next time"...
Welcome to the club of humans, wherein we all make mistakes...But those of us who try to learn from this terribly painful experience by staring at some scary things within us, and figure out something positive to gain, to "do our best and leave the rest..." - we try not to repeat the same mistakes. I suspect you are in that group. And In the final analysis, isn't That's all any of us can do?
Later,
