This is a cool post, for me this is what I learned:
When we start a relationship or a marriage, we know the person we are marrying or at least we think we know them very good.
When my M ended I was accused of absolutely everything, and this is where the twist comes. My wife acussed me of not supporting her career, now I look back and I did support her, yes I didnt went to one play she did, due to not being able to handle a situation were she was kissing another man....
I am not perfect neither she is, and I searched for help to fix that issue, none of us are perfect and we dont get married after we sign a "perfection" contract For some people the search of perfection will ended killing their marriage but hey you cant be perfect. It took me a Divorce to realize that I could not be perfect and I dont want to focus my life in been perfect either. Once your spouse leaves if you seat down and you look at the reasons why they left you, then you realize how minimal in most cases they are, they are not important enough for somebody to create all the pain they created.
So I changed many things I didn't like about my old me, however in my life there is no space to change who I am in order to believe that the relationship will be then perfect...
Its all about loving ourselves , you can't be with somebody who doesnt love themselves.
My wife made me believe many things and I believed them because I was scared of being along, however she choosed to end the relationship because as I discover recently she was in an affair with another guy for over a year...
