Thank you Heart. I'm having trouble seeing the separation as anything but the door to D, though. Right now I'm viewing it as a victory for H, it's what he's wanted all along, and it's a victory for OW because they can now spend all the time they want together. (Yes, I know it's not supposed to be a competition, but I'm being honest here.) For me, I'm struggling to figure out who I am and time alone is uncomfortable. I don't know what makes me happy anymore.
I have my first appt with IC tomorrow, and I'm kind of looking forward to that. I feel like I'm stuck in limbo right now, and hoping she can help point me in some sort of direction.
