That did not take long. Picked W up at airport, who was returning for a week after moving 1500 miles away 9 weeks ago. Took 10 minutes for her to tell me she was going to go through with the D, and was going to stay out west in the mountains. She has clearly determined that the way out of her depression and for her to find happiness is to leave everything she has (career, home, friends, retirement, financial security) and to divorce me. There was never any moving away to heal. There was just moving away to start a new life.
She is all worried about sending me mixed messages. Leading me on as if there is a chance we might get back together some day. Guess I now see that reconciliation will never happen. We will see what happens down the road after reality hits her, but I think my only choice is to let it go.
I have asked here several times how you know when it is over. Guess now I know.
