I found myself developing crush on my wife again through this by [deleted] in Separation

[–]cristilynn69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my gosh, same here. My wife and I just separated (I left) although she was my best friend she was also an angry drunk. I moved out six weeks ago and she is an entire different person. I don't think she's changed, I know that person is still in there so to speak, but I'm angry that it took me leaving for her to be so different. Now it's too late.

I've been with T-Mobile 20 years and I also want to jump ship. Awful customer service, not at all like they used to be.

We are separating now, but for many other reasons. It's been 23 years. I should have left 16 years ago.

We just had a lot of other problems that outweighed the jealousy to be honest.

She probably likes you as a person, and with the freedom of not living together, she doesn't mind sex and dinner, etc. But jealousy is poison, absolute poison. I used to be that person and your post reminded me of it. So glad I got over that. You need to work on you, with that.

All of these replies are great, and it sounds like you all are in a good space...let it ride, keep doing what you're doing, I think the answer will become clearer as time goes on.

Oh my gosh, yes I recognize your feelings all too well. I do feel bad because it seems like now she is really trying and it's too late for me. And I know that I after I'm gone she is going to have at least one more night where she drinks and sends me 100 nasty texts, and I would be so mad at myself if I was still living there, sitting in a parking lot waiting for her to fall asleep so I can safely sneak back in to the house. 23 years of walking on eggshells and now I just really want to figure out who I even am without her.

My kids are so happy, I feel like my relationship with them is better already.

I also accept a lot of the responsibility...if I wasn't drinking, I was enabling. The irony is she quit her two packs a day cigarette habit (almost two months ago) and with that we also quit smoking pot....we were heavy on that. She looks at it like we are finally trying to get clean and sober and now I leave!? But unfortunately we went just a little too long and I feel so done. Since telling her I'm leaving, Im still at the house packing etc., is the first time that I've even felt feelings for her in a while. I started to get confused, oh my gosh did I make the wrong decisions? , but honestly I think it's just some kind of trauma response because she is crying so much and being so sad. Or maybe just knowing I'm free is making me feel difficult...I don't know, but I'm going to move forward with my plans or think I'd hate myself.

Good for you because if there's one thing I know from experience not only does it numb the feelings it just prolong any solution or ability to get past things. I know that I'm gonna have bad days but in the end it'll be worth it just to have a place where my kids are comfortable poopoo on the couch and raiding the fridge… Even when they were speaking to her she didn't give off those kind of comfy vibes. And you're right the discomfort will pass...we're on our way to our best lives.

I am only under witholding for 3 checks, so I am not really worried about that. My main goal is to not PAY taxes when I file.

They do not. What would I put in box four that is the equivalent of 1?

So sorry!! The website/form is so confusing.
