Thanks guys. I got home from traveling last night and we talked for a good hour or two and then neither of us were sleeping this morning around 3:30 so another 2 1/2 hours of chatting. All good stuff about how we ended up here and what we'd like to do differently going forward.

I told her I'd like to keep the apartment for now to give some breathing space as needed. We have our split beach trip next week and I still plan on giving her with her family a few days without me. I'll join them (W was going to come back mid-week, but now is staying whole week).

Waiting to hear back from MC and I told my W I want her to see an IC. She needed this anyway, but I think it's the only way she's going to be able to navigate her guilt on all this. The infidelity, giving up and walking again, etc.

I've got my IC appointment tomorrow and is such great timing.

All the best.
