Folks:
People here provided invaluable input to my situation last year. W and I almost split last June, then worked on the R with counciling, and I was seeing glimmers of hope. I took all the advice her, GAL, and really did change my perspective. I now know what I should always have known, that my W was the most important thing in my life and I should have let her know that. Things were looking up, then I had to leave the country on business for 3.5 months - we got together twice during that time for a total of about 3 weeks. Got home yesterday, and got the bomb dropped today that she filed.

Now what do I do? I want to continue with counciling and potential reconciliation. She justs wants to leave me and the town. She has been very unhappy, suffering from depression for 2-3 years. She thinks leaving me is going to make it all better. I don't want to lose her. What do I do?
