Overall I'm in an OK place, or at least I was until today. Today was move out day, so it's goodbye to the marital home for not just her, but for me as well. It was really, really hard, and it's difficult to put a positive spin on it - it's smaller, it's in a busier neighborhood, further from work, and so on. And that's just the pragmatics; obviously it's super hard emotionally too.



Hey Steve, for what it's worth, I'd trust the veterans on here more than anything. Most of them are still here despite their M's being long gone, yet they continue to come and help people like you and me. That's priceless.

With that letter to her, do you think if you were in a place of strength and confidence you would feel the need to write it, let alone actually write it and give it to her.

Did you ever write her a nice note, poem, letter etc when things were good? If no, then even more reason not to write one to her now.

Don't write her a letter.

I hear you about your feelings in moving out mate. Hope you get out and buy lots of cool stuff to furnish your new home!
