I am pursuing a healthier lifestyle. I am doing new things and also taking responsibility for my home, my mistakes, and my failures.

I am OWNING my mistakes. I am repairing them, and I am keeping my promises no matter what.

Going it alone really, really scares me. Because no matter what I do, no matter how much the changes in my life may affect her, now EVERYONE in her life will be telling her to stick with the divorce.

She will move out and move on. She is do determined to move on with her life, she will pursue it until she feels that I am a billion miles away. No matter what that takes.

I am scared to continue, but I am terrified to give up.

You said this wasn't for the faint of heart. I am TRYING to stick this out and just work through all the pain.

Puppy's story gave me real hope. But he didn't have to go it alone. Did you Allen?

I mean are some spouses sooooo far gone that DB actually pushes them out the door faster?

I am NOT going to be pushed into selling this house. Plain as that. I am not going to be forced into a crappy apt while she goes off and buys a condo. That ain't happening.

But it still tears me apart that the woman I love is so dead set on leaving me, that she will beg to her parents for money, and live in an apartment she hates rather then be in a house with me.
