G:
It is a good note, but I agree with LP that you should write it, then hold on to it, reread it several times, and be sure the time is right. I gave my W a heartfelt letter telling her I wanted her to be happy, that I would do anything to help her get there, that I would not stand in her way. Told her I would sign the D papers (not that I wanted to in any way, shape or form). I thought it was the thing to do. Gave it to her before I left on a work trip for 2 weeks.

Now I have not heard from her in 5 days. Don't think I am going to. I think I have put an end to our M, and I was trying to be a nice guy.
