[I wish]

Marriages take hard work and effort from both sides. From what you've told us, it appears that you've given him many chances and you've put a very strong effort. However, sometimes all these factors still isn't enough.

Furthermore, there does not seem to be any progress from your efforts. So sometimes you have to do one of the toughest things. It's to let go. It does seem like that's the best approach at this point because there's no reason for you to suffer anymore.

You might be closing one chapter of your life, but that just means that a new chapter is opening. There's so much to look forward to, so focus on those things. Let the past be in the past! And you know that we're always here for you!

I am red. I can't remember if I had told you I had given him until October 1st. I didn't want him rushing to find something since he has my son to think of also. But I see there will be an issue. He called on two places but I don't think he has looked any further.

I am not staying together just to avoid being alone. I know that's his thinking. I am happy with my choice, I feel free now in a sense. I guess I have grown in myself and saw the picture from every direction and I don't ever see this working again. I seriously wouldn't know where to begin.

That's why I love you hon! Your always making me laugh.

I have felt lonely for years, just in a different way. I expect to struggle and I am sure its going to down right suck. But it makes no sense to continue. We have both done wrong. We have both been hurt. The really sad thing is I am the one being strong for him. I have made this choice and not looking back. I feel like I need to support him. But there are no tears big enough that will make me look back. I welcome a new future.

You are not alone.

You don't have to carry this on your own.

We (by we I mean me) am willing to get drunk and pass out in a pool of vomit right along side you!

I'm going to get slapped for that!

He needs to understand that sometimes so much of the foundation of a marriage is rocked,there is nothing to hold it up anymore.

I hope that in time,you can come to an understanding that works for both of you.
Maybe down the road,even a friendship.

Just know Sunny that on your dark days,you have a wealth of support here! Stay strong!

Thank you artlady.
We will always remain friends. We do have that. Its amazing at one time in our relationship we were the "it" couple. Funny how things work out. But I see now it didn't go beyond the friendship really. I would love to work it out. But we have been down that road more then once.

I have cracked a couple times and wanted to give in. But its pointless. Last night I was in bed and he on the couch and I was lonely for that body near me. Even though there is no cuddling I wanted it there. Its amazing how I can kind of do NC with him living with me. I don't look, I don't touch and I don't think. Period. Then there is no longing for what will never be.
