I had a really sad conversation with my soon to be x. We spent the day splitting phone accounts, bank accounts, email accounts, etc. Afterward we were sitting having a coffee together and it was a good, open conversation about our lives, our issues, and what went wrong.

She opened up about how she felt, and what prompted her behavior toward the end. The sad part was that if she had said any of the things years ago, I would have tried harder to work through it.

Sad because it’s too late, the feelings are gone, and not coming back. We both knew it, and are moving on.

Sad, because her behavior made me feel inadequate and less a husband and more a banker.

We will be friends, we don’t hate each other, but I really feel down over the missed opportunities and that I really don’t wish to try again.
