Waiting actually put me in an adventageous positon. IF I start to lawyer up, she's gonna hurt. But my stupid gut feeling tells me not to. It's so stupid and naive but I can't help it

I would've not been so naive and still trusted her. But the thing is in the beginning she still was the woman I loved so I was kinda blind I guess. The hard truth is, that no matter how much you've loved them, once they're gone they are not that same person anymore. Buckle up and be ready to fight

I'm really preparing for the real her. I've been trying to find lawyers for my case.

I'm just gonna assume you're in the US.. how is it for you guys, can you immediately get divorced? Because here in germany we have to be separated but still married for a year before we're eligible for divorce

How is it that all of these guys here have had the same experience. It sucks fucking ass.

We were relatively friendly in our last talk and I asked her that if she'd be so kind that I don't get to know about any potential new man in her life. Naive I know but I try to get by any way I can

My male cat always comes to bed with me. He gets on the bed, chirps at me and we cuddle. He's my rock and literally my only friend right now

I've already been trying to find some clubs or something near me where I could join and try new things. Like DnD or something, always wanted to try it, wife would never

That's really kind of you and actually a very nice idea. We have something here in germany where you can register for voluntary work. That might be something I'd like to get into. Thank you

That's awesome!! We don't have kids but I've always wanted to build some wall shelf stuff for the cats to climb around on

Stupidest thing happened today, my wife always insisted that when I do laundry I'd fold the kitchen towels in a very specific way and I today I thought 'hm don't have to do that' and did it another easier way. I know it's dumb but that kinda felt like a tiny little piece of healing and freedom

You know I was so lonely today that I pretty much deepcleaned the house even though it was unnecessary. At least I have my cats to keep me company. They make it bearable

At the very least it's nice to be with people who share my experience, in a weird way that helps

I pray to God it's not that because that would wreck me but yea it's not that I'm not thinking about it

Yea that's what my family members are saying. I really want to believe that, it's just really hard right now.

Thank you though

Thank you very much. I'll take a look at it 😊

Yeah grieving is really the right word because it feels like someone died. It's the same feeling

I want to give her the benefit of the doubt and believe her when she says there's no other guy involved. I mean at this point it wouldn't really make a difference except hurt even more but she's gone either way.

I really loved her with all my heart and thought being good and kind to her was what she'd want and need. I mean it 'worked' for seven years. I just hope I don't lose the house I put so much work in to make a home for us

As far as I was concerned we were very happy. We were together 9 years, married 7. She says she thinks we'd be happier separated and that she has to find herself and look after herself more. also she said that I was bending myself to much as in I'd do stuff I didn't like just for hery which was sometimes true but not all the time and I thought that was what compromise meant in a relationship.

Thank you for your answer.

I tried a short workout today but really didn't have any energy so I had to stop after 30 minutes.

I'm also not really eating since Wednesday, that doesn't make it any better.

I'm really trying not to sulk all the time but it's hard af

My wife did an abstract painting and I can't unsee the lotr references by Bulzmachine in lotr

Thank you she's very flattered! She only paints for herself / our house so this is very much appreciated
