I was positive a divorce was the obvious right move 3 days ago, but ever since I told her its over, I feel like an asshole.

The night I told her, she was in a rare REALLY good mood for some reason. Trying to plan seeing a movie with me, actually hanging out with me, laughing, cheerful..the good side of her, so right out of the gate I felt terrible about it. Its was a good opportunity to tell her as both kids were out of the house for awhile that night.

I wont get into any detail on the reasons why, but this has been a long time coming, but now that its actually happening for real I have this pit in my stomach. We've talked about her plans to move out and how to divide things, and what to do next and shes been so emotional and crying through it all. This is so much harder than I anticipated. I thought for sure she was going to be nasty and mostly combative about everything, but it has been the exact opposite. She's just absolutely broken and I feel so bad.

Is this normal? It's tearing me up inside.
