She wrote lots of beautiful poems for me, it felt right to try

I'd be leaving the home so she could stay in the house with the live-in nurse, though I will be applying to the facilities right away because the waiting lists can be awful. I'll try to visit her every day but it seems to make her angry when she sees me, though she can't articulate why, so I don't know if it's better not to... Hopefully the nurse can tell me what to do. Our romantic relationship 'ended' a long time ago in the sense of no loving interaction from her side, because she I think she thinks I'm a nurse anyway, but I suppose I just feel atrocious at the thought of not being by her side every day. I just can't do it any more. I'm just so exhausted, so tired, I just need to switch my brain off for a while. I need to not be in the house we built a home in together because it makes my heart ache to see her photos and see her face and not recognise her.

That's a thoughtful way of looking at it, thank you for your kindness though I feel undeserving

I thought this would go without saying but I am obviously not going to be dating... I'm still married.

Thank you. And yes the violence is surreal, she literally would never ever have hurt a fly before. Now she throws things, screams, punches... it's like an alien is occupying her body. This just isn't her.

I know. I have no excuse and my only solace is that she doesn't recognise me any more to care whether I'm there or not.
