So my wife and I finally had the conversation last night. After 10 years together, 7 of which married we're getting divorced. It's been a long time coming but that doesn't take the pain away.

I relocated so we could be near her family when we had the first of our 2 children, so im quite a way from my support network. I would not consider moving back go my home city as my job and life is here now. So things may get a bit lonely for me at times.

Our initial conversation was that I would buy my wife out of our house as she would not be able to afford it on her wage and that we would split the kids 50 / 50. We want to remain amicable and friendly for the kids sake as they are the most special and important things in our lives.

Do you guys have and tips or advice to consider when going through this?
