This has to be the roughest situation. My wife moved in with her parents until I move into my new place (Feb. 24th). So far, it's only been 4 days since I have seen her or since she has been at the house. It's real lonely without her and I miss her so much. I try to keep myself active and busy, but I always catch myself staring into space thinking about her.

We are separating because we both agreed that this relationship isn't going to work. We've been together for 6 years, but I have acted like a jerk for half that time and I only changed when she came o me unhappy 7 months ago. We went to see a therapist, but after a few months my wife still wasn't going to let her walls down. I have changed dramatically, but come to find out, my wife has been talking to another guy (on the phone) for the past couple months. That created an emotional affair and really explains why she wasn't going to let herself fall back in love with me.

Anyways, the good thing is that we are still young (25yrs) and we have NO CHILDREN. We have agreed to sell the house, split the profits and go our separate ways.

*I guess now I am feeling as though I really messed this up to begin with. And if I hadn't acted the way I did, maybe we both would've been happy together at this moment. The therapist said my wife had some emotional issues as well (she suffers from bouts of depression and is currently on medication) and I shouldn't blame this entire situation on myself. It was a negative spiral that had contributions from the both of us. We just got so detached, it would've took a big change in the both of us, but she didn't want to. Instead, she'd rather get involved emotionally with someone else.

I'll stop rambling...... I just need to express some feelings.

This sucks, I miss her, I never meant to do any harm, I didn't get into this relationship wanting it to end!

**Oh yeah, try not to listen to any Coldplay.....somehow they hit the nail on the head in their lyrics and it does nothing but remind me of my wife.
