Man, it’s tough to watch someone you used to be responsible for struggle. As men, we are providers and protectors. That never goes away because it is built into our core.
I’ll start this off with saying I’m not going to do anything stupid, she has made her bed and now has to lay in it. Just wanted to vent/ see if these feelings are ok.
She filed for divorce after 10 years of marriage and being unfaithful. But, she’s really turned into a train wreck. All of me hopes she can pull it together and live a decent life, but it’s looking like she is spiraling. One bad decision after another, and just circling the drain.
I know it’s not my responsibility to take care of her anymore….it’s just hard to watch. Because for so many years, I was the one to catch her when she fell. I need this divorce to be final so I can cut all ties. Watching this collapse of her is so hard to stomach.
