No one wins in a divorce. No one. If only these crazy MLCrs had enough clarity to see that the fantasy they buy into so whole-heartedly isn't real.
Regarding the concept of spiritual marriage. I will say this: in my personal experience, how I felt when we physically separated residences and how I feel now are vastly different. You may feel this way in a year or two or three or you may find that your views on this change to something else. Truthfully, try not to have this be a top of mind subject right now as it diverts too much energy from what you need to do - move out, get settled and establish a new routine for the kids.
For me, if I love someone, I'm always going to love them. That doesn't mean they continue to have the power to hurt me though.

Good job on stepping away from that. I truly believe in my heart that it was yet another effort to reel you back. Let it go and focus on you and the kids as you have been.
Every moment with your children is a gift. Too bad she is too caught up in her crisis to realize that.
