IB let those tears stream. You would never have had the strength back in June to handle what you just handled. Those tears are tears of wisdom. You are wise enough to know that you did everything you could. You had no more choice left but to let that marriage go.
I knew we were on a similar timeline, but I didn't realize till just now that my H separated from me just 2 days before your separation began.
I'm proud to be on this tough path with you. You really have given me strength.

There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are messengers of overwhelming grief...and unspeakable love. -Washington Irving
As you said, there are no words, but you can tell how much you mean to all of us here, as I'm sure you mean so much to the people that surround your life. Let us, and them, comfort you in any way that we can. If being alone is what you need, then take that time for yourself.
Remember. You handled yourself with grace and dignity, and have the right to hold your head up high. And whether you feel this way right now or not, "Welcome to the first day of the rest of your life". Make it a happy one. ((((HUGS))))
I have been following along and I am thinking of you today. You have returned courage for fear and love for anger and confusion. You have been true to yourself and the vows you made. I am proud to know you.
No one can say anything to make this easier. Thankfully there are so many amazing people on these boards that can understand what you are going through. You've been amazing through this all and handled yourself with the utmost grace and dignity. ((((IB)))

Irish, I am so sorry. You have done all you could, with grace and dignity. Take some time to rest and regroup. Eat, sleep, breathe. You will be on your feet again, stronger than ever, in time.
