I have been reading quite a bit of the resources which is why I posted here. Several of the things I read are exactly things that we went through. The actual trigger event in our life was possibly our youngest daughter getting ready to graduate from High School and head to college (Empty Nest Syndrome).
She is currently just living with OM 1000 miles away and is getting ready to move back here and get an apartment but I'm not sure if OM is coming with her or not at this point.
As far as standing for my wife, that is a good question. I'm not 100% sure of the definition of standing. We are D and I am GAL and meeting people and going to possibly date other people. I am also looking into the anullment process because that is something my XW said that she wanted but in talking to my IC, she and I have come to the conclusion that it would be good for me also to have the M anulled.
I know that it is going to take TIME and I am not in any hurry but I am also not going to stop living my life and moving forward with my life.
Hope that makes sense.
