I am going through the divorce process and my husband is still in the house. He travels a lot for work, which is good. I have gotten better at it. He stays in another room. I think of him as a roommate I tolerate. I try not to be petty or punishing, but I do not act like a friend. I don't do "wifely" things anymore. At night I take my favorite snack to my room and watch something on netflix. I schedule at least two dinners out with friends so that I can get out of the house and clear my head and receive their support. I will leave just to mosey around at TJ Maxx or something and buy something small for the house that makes me happy. The hardest thing for me is that he still comes to family dinner. Ugh. That's painful. But I console myself by reminding myself I am a really good cook and that's going to suck for him when I'm not in his life lol.

You are doing great. This is hard hard heavy stuff. You will be okay. We will be okay. xo
