My (26) wife (25) moves out of our apartment in a few days, and seeing the boxes all over the place is one of the most difficult things I’ve had to endure. I initiated the divorce, and she got a job 2 hours away. Even though I filed, I am filled with guilt, regret, dread, and questioning “what have I done?!?” It’s hard to focus at work and overall just a horrific experience.

She treated me poorly at times and it all added up, and after continuously sharing my feelings and them being ignored, the pressure she put me under I finally reached a breaking point.

No kids thankfully, we are each taking a dog and I’m staying in our current unit til July when the lease ends. I just feel terrible though, and things have been so good and amicable throughout this process.
