Probably not the best place to put this.
I am in my younger 50’s with two kids in HS. One graduates in a year and the other in two. Found out earlier this week when I questioned my wife on what was wrong, she told me she didn’t want to do us anymore and wasn’t interested in trying to save our marriage.
I have never been this emotionally low in my whole life. Starting over at this point in my life is the last thing I want to do. It has been a tough week so far. I can’t understand why anyone would not want to at least try to salvage what amounts to a huge portion of their life.
I am just trying to find the ground below me as I take my next steps. I understand the path is going to be difficult. I want to be there for my kids and they need me to be there for them, so this what I am focusing on. To do this, I know I cannot let myself fall down into a deep abyss of depression.
I suppose this post was therapy for myself.
