Same thing happened to me. She only moved farther and farther from me when I left the house. I regret leaving the house big time but that is the past and we can't change the past. Let the emotions out and work through them. I've been through the five stages of grief. I got really stuck on guilt and then depression and just today I found my self back in denial. We have to be strong and move forward! We can't go back and change anything nor can we change our W's decisions. We can only control our decisions. The loneliness kills me the most. I miss my W and Kids so much the pain is physical.
