It's good that your friends and your sons understand the break-up is mutual and with luck you both try to stay positive and respect you individual lives. Hopefully if either of you speak of your marriage it becomes "it just didn't work out"karen goodgiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05322752675339875643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3383236105308499589.post-20409188014077330512012-10-11T10:05:50.744-04:002012-10-11T10:05:50.744-04:00Dear Meg
Over the years that I have been followin...Dear Meg<br /><br />Over the years that I have been following and commenting on your blog I have come to admire many things about you, among them your ability to write in a clear and engaging fashion. As with reading all good writers one sometimes needs to 'read between the lines'. I hope I am not being too forward with these comments but it has always been clear that your love for your children is deep and unconditional. I have not felt the same regarding your feelings towards your wife. I even feel the love that you have for your mother, your sister and even some of your friends has been greater than your feelings toward your wife. <br /><br />It also seems as if your wife has seen you more for what you do and what you symbolize and what you can provide to her and how what you do and how you do it impacts her than who you are and what needs and desires you may have. I do not sense deep love from you towards her and I do not sense much love of you by her at all. That is not a good mix to keep a marriage together. <br /><br />It seems as if you have tried hard to make things work and that part of you is deeply saddened by the realization that this two decade work in progress could not reach its originally planned conclusion.<br /><br />Please feel good about your joint success in raising good and wonderful children and please remember that no matter what path you take or how your marriage goes that you will always be their parent.<br /><br />Best of luck as these life pages get turned and things move forward.<br /><br />Patscalesmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07405121500560615820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3383236105308499589.post-47575385612463362622012-10-11T08:08:36.292-04:002012-10-11T08:08:36.292-04:00Meg -

You're going through a lot, and thankfully, you have a network of people who will help you see this through. And hopefully, you'll soon see the light at the end of the tunnel....<br /><br />With that being said, I'd like to focus on your last paragraph, where you note that you expect to be wearing skirts more than slacks in the apartment. I think you'll be happier when you can do this, and it will be a relief for you that you can finally be comfortable in how you live in your own space....<br /><br />Hoping that things get better as quick as possible....<br /><br />MarianMarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18346866501735405647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3383236105308499589.post-83094320422203254212012-10-11T07:44:40.550-04:002012-10-11T07:44:40.550-04:00Be aware that you may get visits from your neighbo...Be aware that you may get visits from your neighbors at the apartment ("welcome to the building", "this package came while you were out," etc.) and be prepared to explain your dressing style.<br /><br />Pretty Sissy Danihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14649369360851086155noreply@blogger.com
