To get by, I think to myself that maybe life will be easier if we part. Hopefully, she will be happy. Maybe I'll find somebody who has the same interests. I used to be a big outsdoorsman (fishing, hunting, camping). My W is not into those things. I pretty much shut those things down for the past 17 years. Maybe I can find a woman who fits me more. That's how I get by, but my W isn't all beauty. She's smart, engaging, really has a good heart, is strong in her faith, is a great Mom. So, while I can try to talk myself into thinking this is the best thing for me, I know I'll miss her dearly.
