Late next month will mark the fourth anniversary of our divorce.

I still have bad days to go with the good, but I think I’m rounding the bend.

However it was brought up to me recently that I had given up on my marriage instead of fighting for it. I didn’t believe it, but now I’m starting to wonder if I didn’t make a fatal error.

I still love my bride, and that has never wavered but I may have indicated to her by my actions that I was no longer interested in staying with her even though my words said
“please stay”. You see I wanted her to be happy and if that meant giving her a divorce then so be it.
But was that a mistake? Should I have said “no!”?

I don’t know but apparently some who know me think I should have fought more. Unfortunately I’m too late. She remarried over a year ago and any chance I might have had is gone.

I’m hoping this is another step in my recovery, that I will continue to move on. But I’m now at another crossroads in my life. But that is a story for another day.
