Josephina Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 So I have made the decision that a divorce really is going to happen, and now I feel SO calm. I know that normal is a relative term, but is this feeling normal? We have had years, and years of turmoil, but I always held out hope that we could somehow work it out. I'm just now realizing how utterly unfair this past decade has been for both of us...we held on so stubbornly! We have yet to actually separate and file paperwork, but have had an in house separation for approximately 10 months now (ha! So much for the 3 month deadline we put on that one!). So, this wave of calm...I'm expecting to be completely overrun with a wide array of emotions. I'm sure it will come, but for now I feel more at peace than I have for a very long time.
Philosoraptor Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 Good for you, I'm at the same place. Enjoy it
Lexygirl Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 I truly believe that there are stages of feelings as one era ends and another begins... Of course it's normal to feel calmrelieved right now BUT just know that you will have a whole gammit of emotions and that's ok... You will go back and forth and around and around. TC
KME39 Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 I felt the same way when I told s2bx. It has been almost a month that we made the decision to end the marriage. I move in exactly 8 weeks into my new apartment and can NOT wait. We co-exist with each other right now due to the fact that my apartment isn't available. When he is home from his job we give each other the evil glares and avoid each other.
