Very sad indeed. We divorced last year after 17 years, very sad and depressing situation esspecialy for the kids.
I divorced in 2004 after 17 years. Two girls. They got tired of the fighting and told US that they didn’t want to keep living there if we stayed together.
I left a week later. It hurt for a while, I had never been single as an adult (got married at 18) and it took me some time to try to figure out who I am and what I want. Recently remarried a woman that I had been dating for a year and to this day, no arguments. She’s really been a blessing and even my girls (now grown) and I have gotten a lot closer.
It gets better.
