A new beginning to an end

[Gardener]

aver,

Nobody is a perfect spouse. I wasn't, and I am sure you weren't. But that does not warrant abandonment. That is not your fault. That is HIS stuff. Please remember that.
I have spent all this past year beating myself up for X leaving, and feeling ashamed, like you, for "being made a fool of.

Amen.
Forgive me for posting this for the umpteenth time:

"Keep telling yourself that you can heal from this. You are a good person.
No one deserves to be abandoned. Nothing you did warranted this kind of treatment from the person who promised to love you.
The issue lies within your spouse.
It is a flaw in them that has caused them to walk out on you.
You do deserve better treatment.
It is better to be alone and happy than to be with someone who would choose to leave."
