SBJ,

I've spent days reading all of your posts and have learned a lot. My BD was in September 2016, are still living together, and are working on a separation agreement. Like you, my W is also my best friend of 20 years and we have kids and my W insists that we will continue to be friends after we separate and that, in time, I will see that this is the best for the development of our relationship.

Thank you for sharing your story. It gives me insight and preparation into some of the difficult things to come (such as having to to tell the kids and actually living apart).
