I filed for D because he’s been living with OW for over a year and everyone has been urging me to do it. Especially my co-worker. I filed because it made no difference that I was his wife. He moved in with OW anyway. No filing for me was not a gimmick. It was me trying to just get on. Did I sabotage my chances?

So many people tell me that it’s just a piece of paper. That he’ll come back if he wants to. That that piece of paper didn’t stop him from leaving and D won’t stop him from coming back. I miss him SO much. I haven’t slept through the night in over two years which is how long he’s been gone.

We have no kids, so nothing to attach him to me. No reason for him to have contact. Most of the people on this forum have children that pulls the spouse back. Yes I’d take him back in a heartbeat. Yes I know he has to coming begging. Yes I know that there is a lot of work if he came back. But even my own mother keeps telling me he’s not coming back. It HURTS.
