I went to the event, arrived before he did, and spoke to everyone I needed to before he got there. When he arrived he greeted me with a kiss just for show in front of the constituents. I told him I had already done my thing and would be leaving. He was surprised by my coolness I know. I told him I had been thinking about things and would talk to him sometime soon. He looked about to cry.
I left feeling really good about his reaction .
When he came home I simply told him I did not want him to lose his house and wanted to start helping him pay some expenses. This whole conversation backfired on me and I shouldn't have begun it. He went onto to say I needed to save my money for the divorce. It went on for a bit, but didn't escalate. Still, made me sad instead of hopeful.
Today I came home, having had a stressful busy day. He asked, so I told him I needed some help with Christmas shopping. We figured it out and he asked for a hug , which I declined. I then cheerfully made dinner for my daughter and her boyfriend and husband left for another event.
I'm praying for wisdom and calmness.
I love him and want to start this marriage over from a new beginning.
But I'm pissed today. That right after 8 months of a hellish campaign and in the midst of my daughter graduating high school early and starting college the same week and my changing jobs....never mind the holidays...he decides to divorce me.
