Yes, I know, the marriage is over. In my heart I know that. I accept it. What I grapple with is my post marriage relationship. I have informed her that we will not be friends but will co parent only to the best of my ability.
That is where the nasty stuff comes from. She wants it her way, all the way, all the time. She has zero empathy for me or our kids.
It's a mess but yes trying to get on with my life.
How do you interact with your x? Friendly but distant? Best friends? Celebrate special events together or not?
My current situation is not friends, pretty much no contact whatsoever. Seems to work best for now. Maybe in time things will thaw but for now no. It's just too freaking painful for me.
Do you feel you are better off divorced rather than being married?
