Thank you, DnJ. To answer some of your questions, yes married 6 years, together for 13. No kids. But we do have 2 dogs who mean the world to us. We both are 33 years old. We have a house together with a mortgage.
H officially moved out yesterday. & took one of the dogs with him. I am gutted, but I didn't fight it and let him go. It's so hard being alone in our home with photos of us on the walls and memories everywhere. I am doing my best to not reach out to him, even though I really want to. It's difficult to go from talking to someone every single day for the last 13 years to not at all. But I know it's what has to happen if I want even a modicum of a chance to turn this all around.
I'm working hard at GAL. It is more difficult to do so when I just feel so sad, but fake it til you make it, I guess.
