Kinda
So I'm in the early stages of it, still living in the house and all that. I guess this is kind of my way of introducing myself into the community here though it looks like it's a seldom visited place.
1. how long were you married? 18 years
2. did it end suddenly or gradually? Probably could have ended ten years ago.
3. when did you start having doubts? A long time ago with the feelings of distance and loneliness.
4. have you remarried, are you dating again, or are you currently single? I'm in the early stages so...
5. how long have you been divorced? n/a
6. were there any children or pets? Two boys, two girls and two dogs.
7. if so, how are you handling custody? When that time comes, I don't know that's hard to wrap my mind around. To be a PT dad is something I can't think about.
8. what did your family think? Most of them know it's ending and most of them feel sorry. Of course they do because that's what family does, they feel sorry for you.
9. when did you really know it was over? July of this year I knew we were done. There was no talk of MC or trying again. She's done.
10. was it a mutual decision? No, I mean I guess I've always been willing to try but you can't make someone want to be with you.
11. if not, who left whom? n/a
12. what's been the hardest thing for you? Thinking about being away from her and my kids.
13. when you got married, did you truly think you'd be together forever? The funny thing is when I got married I talked about a pre-nup but I was young and without a dime. For some reason I thought that marriages all end but when I got married I thought mine would be different.
14. how did the legal proceedings go? to be determined.
15. so . . . . what now? I wait and see.
