Thank you for your guidance. I guess I need to be reminded of this (like I said, something I struggle with).
It’s like I tell my students—doing nothing is still doing SOMETHING.
I do understand that pursuing her will most likely fail, so I won’t. But I feel like I’m living with her as brother-and-sister (or two roommates).
While I know it’s not easy, it still [censored], and it’s hard to not fall into an emotional trap of ‘well was I a bad husband’ or regret for times when I wasn’t as affectionate or sexual with her as she would have liked and that led her to this point. I may as well fall into that trap here in the forums and get out of it so I’m not there at home.
