Planning on telling H tomorrow

The girls will be sleeping over my mom's tomorrow night, so it's the perfect opportunity to sit him down and tell him. I plan on starting out by telling him that I've seen a counselor and through talking with her, I came to the conclusion that I no longer want to be in this marriage and that I want a divorce.

I've gone over this in my head many times, but I'm scared. My heart is racing as I am typing this. I know it has to be done and I hope I don't chicken out. I know that once it's out I will be relieved and the pressure will be off, but then we'll have a lot to go over and do.

  • I have no words of wisdom, as I have not yet been able to do this myself, but I did want to say that my thoughts are with you, and we are here to support you in whatever way you need.

  • Good luck sweetie.  It sounds like you're sure you're making the right decision, so don't let him talk you into something you don't want.
    The day I left was just my beginning.
  • You'll do great! The anticipation of having the conversation is usually way worse than the actual conversation. Good luck!

    I know EXACTLY how you are feeling right now. The anticipation does totally suck, as a PP said. I was sweating and shaking and crying and a complete blubbering mess. 

    But you will feel some sense of relief when the conversation is over. It won't immediately get easier, but you will no longer have the stress of knowing you're about to drop a bomb -- and that helps a LOT.

    Good luck! Left HugRight Hug  You got this.
