A little background in case no one remembers me. Wife had 2 affairs that I know of...recent one with married coworker in May 2005. We went through mediation and the divorce is in the works with the lawyers. Should be final in 60 days. I moved out in November 2005 because I couldnt handle the torture of her seeing her boyfriend, him calling, not coming home...etc. She told me she wanted a divorce and has NEVER apologized for having the affair.

Deep down I still love my wife and am an emotional wreck. I have been looking for a good book or workbook as a self help guide through separation...divorce and what to expect but can only find books focused on emotionally helping women through this. Can anyone recommend any reading material?

Thanks in advance,

Rufus

Find a local divorce support group. Look in the newspaper or search the internet.
I really liked the Fresh Start Divorce Recovery Workbook.


It was a marriage that never really started.
