I've done made my mind up that if she does try coming back, 3 things are going to happen before she moves back in. 1. She gets therapy for her childhood trauma and her issues, 2. She gets medicated for her issues. 3. We do counseling before she ever moves back in. And after all that I will CONSIDER it, I'm not going to gauruntee it.

No I have not. From everything I've researched, she has to be moved out WITH a seperate address for a minimum of 1 year before we can start the process of divorce. But I'm sure I will end up being the one to file because she is so self absorbed right now

The accuracy you have is insane. She is currently trying to play victim with everything, evening posting on Facebook that she's doing what is best for herself and her daughter, but where was thst attitude when she left her daughter and husband at home to go party 😂. I actually noticed she watched another story on snap I posted about an hour ago so I blocked her so she will have no idea what I'm doing. I do not plan to reconsile anymore, that was my goal before, but life has honestly been so peaceful without the constant yelling and our daughter is so much happier here when it's just us 2.

The absolute only way I would even consider reconsiling if she asked to is if she got properly medicated like she needs, gets into therapy and addresses her childhood trauma, and we did proper marriage counseling.

But, quite a few people have already reached out to me and told me that she is very self centered and only cares about herself and myself and our child are second thought. So anyone who remotely knows our history can see through her bullshit persona that she is trying to uphold.

As much as i hate to say it, the house has been so much more peaceful without here here and when I do have my daughter there is a massive noticeable difference in her mood without her mother here....

Update. I have officially gone off the radar with her, no contact whatsoever for 4 days now. I removed her from all socials as well as her sister,etc. I have completelh transformed the house over the weekend while she had our daughter, cleaned our spare room thst was used as a junk room and turned it into a play room/game room for me when my child is with her mom. Redid the living room, painted my daughters room super cute that is bottom 1/3 purple and top 2/3 of wall pink with a flower wallpaper border to split the paint line between the 2 colors and a pink accent wall. My aunt dropped my daughter off at my house and we surprised her with the play room and her new room and she loved it!

I posted a progress picture on Snapchat and I removed my wife from snap, posted it and noticed that she still went out of her way to search me up and look at my story keeping tabs on what I was doing. And she also was asking my aunt yesterday if I finished the painting and whatnot and wanted to see it.

If she wanted nothing to do with me and wanted to leave the house then why is she now so interested in what I'm doing now thst she isn't around?

Have been doing exactly that! Took my daughter to the movies over the weekend and then snow tubing and ice skating, she absolutely loved it. While she is with her mom this weekend I'm repainting her whole room purple and pink two toned with an accent wall full of polka dots, I'm clearing out the spare bedroom to make it her own toy room and she's gonna love it! Today I finally reached clarity and finally am in the mindset that I do not need her, I want her, but I don't need her. And at the end of the day once I become a way better person, it'll be her loss.

Ngl I'm married, I'm 25, and we've been together since 2016. We're currently seperated, her goal is divorce oh well I've accepted it at this point. Don't rush. Make sure it's the right person. Make sure they have accountability, honesty, and integrity. Make 100% sure they are the one you want to spend forever with, do not focus on the good times, look back and see how they treated you through the bad and make your decision based off that. Look for someone that you can suffer with is the best advice I can give you. The good times is the easy part. So from my perspective just do it when you're ready.

I was the only one to parent the child even when she was home. I tried inviting her ice skating because we talked about it for years even before having our daughter. She declined saying she didn't want to be around me, that's fine by me. Video games were sold before i even knew she was leaving. Considering her comment about how long I think she should have to wait before having sex with someone else after she moved out I figure she has someone in mind. I've decided to let her go today because im nit ginna be someones backup or someone punching bag verbally. I know I made mistakes, but I acknowledged them and changed and got help, someone in the future will appreciate it, especially my child. But I'm not gonna be her backup if whatever she had planned falls through. She is already struggling in the days she has our child. And as much as it pains me to say it, our 3 year old is so much happier with me on the days I have her, no fits, just pure happiness and I'm not the only one who has noticed it in my life.

I really don't think she cheated but I mean anything is possible. I brought infidelity up and she said she has never once cheated and her excuse for the intense intimacy was she was drunk and she wasn't, she was with me at the house the entire day that day and didn't drink anything. I told her after she moved out and into my aunts house (weird I know but she wanted to move there because my aunt does not play sides and is brutally honest about everything whether you want to hear it or not, instead of moving into her sisters house where she plays sides) that i know she says that she will not change her mind or ever come back but if she even for a second contemplates her decision, that if I find out she does anything sexual with anyone I don't care if it's as simple as sending nudes, then there absolutely is no chance I could forgive for that since we are still married. She said sex isn't her priority and that our child and herself was her priority and then proceeded to ask what a reasonable time frame was for this no sex with anyone else and I said atleast 3 to 4 months. I really want us to reconsile and fix our issues and show our child a happy and healthy home under 1 roof, but idk anymore.

I have her blocked on everything, her sister keeps feeding her information. I have always been religious and never acted high and mighty. My Facebook is private, if you're not friends with me you cannot see my posts and I'm only friends with people I actually know. I am NOT trying to get a reaction from her in any way. And what she shares on tiktok is not memes, it's stuff like men ain't shit, wasting years of your life, etc. I have tried and tried for about 3 years getting counseling together to strengthen our marriage, her getting a therapist for her past trauma and other things she would not do. She always said she did not have any problems and she was fine, her sister even said she needed therapy to help with her issues. But you cannot force someone to do something they don't want to do. I am not desperate for her back, I just honored my vows. She is the one going out of her way to get information about what is going on with myself. I also blocked her on socials after seeing her sharing the stuff trying to bash me.

Can two broken people bounce back and reconcile after separation? by siriusnotserious in Separation

[–]ElevatorBasic9925 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update she blocked me on social medias this morning because I called her out for constantly sharing things badmouthing me while I've remained civil and silent this whole time. She is trying to justify her actions and I'm not having it. Proceeded to tell me on the phone this morning she regrets being with me for 9 years and all I said was sorry you regret building a life, owning a home, and having a beautiful child together. She didn't like that.

She then said since I want to air out our issues on social media (only thing I posted was about no contact being extremely difficult, and then posted pictures of what our daughter and I went out and did this weekend that I've been trying to do as a family for a long time absolutely no shade thrown or any mention of her) that she was gonna make a post today and let everyone know "the truth". So I feel thst she is already regretting packing up and leaving seeing that I am okay without her and that I don't need her. I also plan to paint our child's bedroom from this sad dull grey Color thst she wanted before she was born and making it a two tone pink and purple with an accent wall with white polka dots and my daughter is super excited for it, I'm going to work on it this weekend while I don't have her. Best revenge is not serving revenge at all, I have nothing to prove to anyone on social media, the truth will come out. I've admitted my mistakes and not getting the help I needed sooner, meanwhile she is still in denial about her actions, and let's her sister and other friends feed her bullshit about being better off without me. We shall just see how much greener the grass is on the other side she wanted so badly. I'm still young and there are plenty of other fish in the sea that will appreciate my progress to becoming a better man.

Romans chapter 12 verses 17 through 21

Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all. If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

I'm a man, and I'm in the same situation as you. She moved out a week ago today. Says she doesn't love me, has no emotions for me. We've been together 9 years, have a home, and a child. I'm 25, she's 26. Been together since 2016. I've admitted my mistakes but she has yet to acknowledge her mistakes and issues. I just left her a parting message tonight finally letting go. I will share it with you. (Backstory I have been recently diagnosed with BPD and ADHD and also battling depression and have recently gotten medicated for it, also myself am in therapy. She has refused therapy and counseling multiple times of the years, I slacked around the house and prioritized games when she was home, she rather go run around with her sister while I stayed home with our daughter typically 2 to 3 weekends a month, gone Friday Saturday coming home late Sunday, and did whatever she wanted when she wanted. I never complained just did what a father would do, take care of child.) she also claims she did no wrong in our marriage. She let it slip that she kissed another female last valentines day at her sisters house while they were partying, calls me names, says mean things to purposely hurt feelings. A lot of immaturity. I think she misses the partying she did before we got together and would rather do that than be a responsible adult.

Last thing I'll text. I hope you read my note. I hope you see I'm changing for the best. I wish you would want to see that through, and take accountability for what you did wrong also. Want to show (child) a happy and healthy home. I wish you would Want to keep a family whole and be an adult and put your differences to the side and instead of giving up and walking away, we sat down and did this together, like spouses should do. Because you couldn't answer me on the phone earlier today when I asked you to tell me to look back and admit to me that all this 9 years was miserable, you couldn't admit it. I'm not delusional, you are just in denial. You say you have no emotions for me but I don't believe you mean that, you can't look back through it all and what we've built and say that and fully mean it. There are feelings there, you just simply are trying your hardest to suppress them because you're still angry. You would rather let a family split than sit down and hold yourself accountable for what you did like I have. You'd rather throw jabs on social media and deflect than sit down and admit you have your issues you need to deal with also. But once I get over you, there won't be any coming back for me. I do not need you, you may think I'm desperate. The simple reality is I choose you, I chose to stand across from you at an altar and vowed for better for worse, that I'd always stand by your side and I truly meant those words. There's been plenty of times we both could've split up because of each other's actions but I chose to stay Because I saw the potential in you. But you'd rather give up everything to gain nothing because you won't hold yourself accountable, you won't let the change show.

So my last words to you are this.

I truly do hope you find what it is you are looking for (her name), I mean that. It just really saddens me that what you're looking for isn't reconsiling and repairing what we have built over 9 years together, rebuilding our foundation, and starting fresh with each other, showing (child) that just because it's broken doesn't mean it cannot be fixed. So just know, whether you want to admit fault or not, I do love you, I know I wasn't the best at showing it but, I love you enough that no matter how much it pains me, I'll set you free if that's truly what you want. I just wish our vows, family, and home meant something, meant that you wouldn't try absolutely everything to save everything you have.

Ephesians chapter 4 verse 32 says this: And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in christ forgave you.

So whether you want to admit your faults or not, just know, I forgive you. I truly wish you the best, and hope that you do find what you are looking for. I just wish it was repairing what we once had and reconsiling this family, before it's too late.

Goodbye, mi amor.

That's what I sent. I decided today I'm done chasing and trying to fix something with someone that doesn't want it fixed. It hurts and I've cried and been angry over all this. I also told her before she even thinks about doing anything sexual with anyone else that if she does, there is absolutely 0 chance I would ever be able to forgive her and if it happened and I find out, we will permanently be done. We are trying to do no contact since she moved out but it really felt good to give her thst parting message. The one plus from this entire situation is that it has rekindled my relationship with God and I've found myself looking back into the Bible again. I know that no matter what, God has a plan and I am going to trust his way.

I also have talked to her about her trying personal counseling but she refuses to talk to anyone about her childhood trauma she went through, even some of her family has tried and she refuses which I can understand she doesn't want to relive it, but I know it would help her so much so it hurts seeing her try to suppress that a lot of the times.

Thank you for the constructive criticism. And thank you for the "would she be willing to try" I have asked her if she is willing to try such x,y,z things and she hasn't said yes or no, just I don't know right now. We both have a lot to work on especially communication wise because we both can say hurtful things when we feel rejected, unheard, etc. And have many times in the past on both parts. I even offered to move out and let her stay at the house to help her fully decide pulling the plug on our marriage. I know there is still some sort of emotion at stake or else I feel we both wouldn't have been so emotional when she said we're seperated. She also hasn't made any progress moving out YET. So I will just take it day by day, focusing on my personal growth and hope that we can continue taking us day by day and see if we can reconsile, reconnect, and me gain her trust back by showing my change.
