Don't understand, why now???? Plus what do I do??

[ct man 1969]

I told my wife that I wanted her to be totally sure about going forward with the divorce because 2 weeks ago she said she didn't know if she was sure. I asked if it would be a good idea to live separated and handling the custody of the girls like we were divorced until the new year. This way it will be a substantial amount of time to see if this is what she wants. Plus we'll be going through the holidays as well. If she feels the same way we will go forward with the divorce. She agreed (well at least for now). Please pray for my wife and our marriage. Thanks and God bless.
