Well all, My situation has seriously deteriorated. I was away on a short trip with my family. W was home with kids.
My trip was ok. I thought about my situation a lot. When I got home, I was greeted somewhat coldly by W. I talked with her and kids a bit, and discovered that they had gone to a "family" party where OM and his W were. I was very upset and told her that I wish she would have asked me. She became angry and we didn't talk much.
Next morning, she told me she wanted a D, that this was not going to work and she was not going to live as a "prisoner." She was very angry toward me and hateful. She said she wants out and that is final.
I tried to appeal to her, but that was of no use. I believe we are headed for a divorce. I feel so guilty, so hurt and remorseful. I realize it is not entirely my fault, but that doesn't make me feel any better. I feel especially sad for my children who have no idea. They are such wonderful kids and I love them dearly. I know this is going to devastate them. W says it's not that big of a deal, that this sort of thing happens all the time, and that things just didn't work out.
I don't know that there is much else I can do now...
