Bright, I think the best thing any of us can do is just let them go and create a life for ourselves. Do things you've always wanted to do, begin new a new hobby, learn a language really delve into something that is YOURS.
After "The Temp Check" last year, I was ready for the D. I took my ring off, I'm sure I wrote about that, and then he quit wearing his and that really sealed it. We were still friendly when we did see each other but I became free-er, if that makes sense. I was better than OK, my life was good and I knew that it would be what I made of it, nothing depended on him at that point.
People get freaked out about limbo but I never felt that I was in limbo because I was always moving forward.
Once you're able to shift your focus from the Spouse to you, things really turn around.

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do. I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering. Caroline Myss
