re: How do people cope with separation or divorce?

We have had big issues for years and she decided to end it. There is no cheating or abuse. Over the years we just became toxic to each other. Couldn’t get along. I am to blame for a lot of it. She suggested marriage counseling a couple of times and my stupid stubborn arse said no, and we could handle it ourselves. Obviously now it’s a huge regret. She isn’t being a bitch to me or anything but I hate it cause I just want to hate her but I can’t you know. We have 3 daughters and that’s the worst part for me know is knowing we have to tell them eventually. We agreed to wait til we are officially separated.

Look at what you posted here. (I am to blame for a lot of it. She suggested marriage counseling but I said no.
She isn't being a bitch to me.)
She is an adult and you are a child. You don't deserve her or the children. You have put your whole family at risk waiting for her to cave again and it didn't happen.
She finally had enough. Your wife and children deserved a man to step up and at least try to salvage the marriage and family but you put yourself first. Congratulations.


Sorry to be so direct but you need a wake up call.
