[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We will be 12 years married next month. The marriage has been strained from the get go. I have posted on this board many times. I was terrified to leave, and I refused to do it before kids as I was not risking not having kids (we have 2 and they are the lights of my life).

My youngest is 2 (old enough for 50/50 custody), and somehow something finally flipped in me; I am done accepting crumbs, and I’m not even mad anymore. I am going to move into the house I bought years ago (now a rental), and I feel light as a feather. I look forward to life again and don’t feel complete misery.

Anyway, just wanted to share. It’s amazing the physical sensation of complete relief I feel giving up on trying to get blood from a stone. I don’t care if I am single for the rest of my life, in fact I welcome it. I have a good job, 2 beautiful kids, and life is going to be grand.

Ah, yes. The "pink cloud" phase of recovery.  :mrgreen: OP, do your future self a favor and write this in a journal somewhere. Write how elated you are, how excited for your new life, how relieved you're feeling...

These things aren't fake, but they can and usually do fade. Give a future version of you a reminder of how happy the idea of divorce is making you right now, so when she's bogged down in bullshit and nonsense and court proceedings, she'll remember why she chose this path.

Best of luck to you![/quote]
