How does one know when a relationship is done? Anyone here have experience with divorce?
Pretty sure I am headed that way…and I am not bawling my eyes over it, which tells me maybe I actually want out too.
I do not know cyclone but here’s a big cyber hug. Wishing you the best.

I’m sorry to hear this. No experience with divorce personally, but the wife and I had enough struggles that we’ve headed down that road a few times before.
Does the idea of not seeing your wife at the end of a bad day bother you?
The thought of not seeing your kids everyday?
If it’s not about infidelity or money (both good reasons for divorce IMO), is it something you cannot reconcile? Or are you just falling out of love? (disregard if you don’t want to put all your business out there)
This bugs me but my kids deserve to see both their mom and dad happy
It’s not. No cheating and money has never really been an issue in our relationship.
The latter maybe. We got married young (22 & 24) and I think maybe we are just growing apart.

I feel this. My wife and I married at 21 and 24, now we’ve been married 6 years and that time has been very difficult to reconcile our differences - mostly because we didn’t really know who we were… It’s a long road to finding yourself and that story seldom ends while still in your 20s.
I’m certainly not a marriage expert, but I think there’s a few things that you and your wife should do. If you haven’t yet, you should sit down and talk about this with her, directly. You should also talk to each other about your individual goals and dreams… if they conflict, then separating may be the right move to see you both happy. That brings me to my last point, sometimes test driving a break (like a test-drive divorce) can help clarify whether you and her are interested in staying married, or if you might be happier divorced.
I’m glad to hear this doesn’t stem from a place you can’t come back from. Finding what made you attracted to each other in the first place is usually the golden ticket, if that attraction is still there.
Thanks @Andrewgen_Receptors
It’s done though based on a conversation today.
The only thing I can do now is talk to a mental health counselor so I don’t lose my damn sanity.

Why would you lose your sanity over going the route you think you want? Only asking because I think that is more a sign of you not wanting it to be over than otherwise.
Not willing to discuss that here.

Sorry to hear what you’re going through
This.
I don’t know your kids, but for me, I wish my parents got a divorce.
The constant tension was very taxing and I hated having to be in the middle
Likewise.
My parents did not get divorced until I started graduate school, and I have a feeling it might not have even happened had I not intervened in their relationship.
I grew up never feeling like my parents could even tolerate each other as friends. It was not good.

Really sorry to hear about that…
Sending virtual hugs because it’s the only thing I can do. I’m terrible at relationships.

Apparently me too. I am autistic though, so maybe that factors into it.

I’m sure it does. and I sympathize. I never got tested (I think) but my mom really think I have Asperger and I got tested with 150 IQ as a kid so yeah… We can socially awkward I guess.
