I thought I’d read a lot of your divorce posts… but I just found this one. Wow.

Beautifully written and so sad I cried. I’m glad you’re in a better place now (January, 2012)… and I’m glad you’ve been so honest about your experiences: it’s really really brave.

I went through this last March, which was also my birthday month. I had far less time to accumulate feelings and stuff with 4.5 years together, and I’m the one who stayed in the apartment, but reading your blog post reminded me of how I felt that month.

True story: During the month, the ex remarked that her new apartment didn’t have any blinds, so I took her to Target to get some blinds for her windows. While standing in the aisle with a tape measurer, she got a call from the “new guy” she was leaving me for, and proceeded to walk a few aisle away to take the call and giggle. I was left standing there in front of the blinds, wondering why the fuck I was being a nice guy.

I know this is an older post, but my heart still goes out to you sir. And I’m subscribing.

Sad.Face! & ouchies. The dying of dreams scares me pretty bad. I’m sorry you two are in this place of hurt. I’ve seen couples split and go on to find people who are even better for them. While it seems a bit premature to wish for that, it’s one of the better upsides I could possibly imagine to such a scenario.

Oh, wow! I thought you were talking about your parents with the 33 years reference.

What a bummer. Each year, I hear about more and more divorces of friends I know and/or whom I come to know through my blog and you know what? It scares me. Terrifies me. Makes me paranoid for my own marriage and I don’t even know the details of why.

However, with your heart, I know you wouldn’t do this though without much thought, soul searching and heart break. I hope you and Amy find happiness and peace. I wish you both the best.

Ignore my last tweet…sorry, hadn’t stopped by in a few days.

This makes me very sad. I hope to still see you a few times this spring and summer and that you’re in good health and good spirits regardless.
