You are right that this journey has been incredibly hard. I have turned a corner, but I am having a hard time digesting the fact that my marriage is over.
I am right there with you. You and I can both see what has happened in our relationships, and we realize it is not likely going to turn around. But at the same time, it is so hard to let go. Stay strong and keep busy, GTO. I keep reminding myself to do that same. It will eventually pass, and things will get better. I am just now starting to believe that.

That definitely seems par for the course. I think most of us realize well in advance, before our hearts ever catch up.

I will be interested to hear what he has to ask. It might be something he is requesting, hence the nice compliment to soften you up.
I am very happy to hear that you and some other DBers are getting a chance to meet up and share some good times....JEALOUS!!!
