Uggghhhh! I hate this. The rollercoaster. I've never liked the real ones and I'm not liking the emotional ones either. If you've read my other posts (and for those that have and responded, THANK YOU) I'm seeing a divorce lawyer this week. I have moments where I'm over reacting and should just forget about it. And there are moments when I want to strangle him. I'm putting my plan together as far as what I want to take with me and where I'm going to go when I tell him, but thinking about telling him really unnerves me! I know it's normal. He's not going to be happy(duh) and he'll fight me I'm sure. So, for those who divorced their spouse, how did you break the news to them? I was thinking of saying it to his face and then collecting my things, but I think that would be too awkward and I would want a witness there. But now, I'm thinking of just taking my things and leaving a letter with my lawyer's number.
Any ideas?

Sorry, I'm not providing any insight :( - I'm interested in hearing others' responses too.
Others who have BTDT - How did you break the news to your spouse when you said you wanted out??
I'm struggling with the same thing, being spineless just like my H, when I know that's not right. Sometimes I just want to pick a fight with him so I can tell him "I'm not dealing with you anymore!!" Real mature of me, I know.
You are smart to go ahead and secure personal treasures and important documents before you say anything to him.... just in case he becomes unreasonable.
If you're miserable, chances are he is, too... so why not just say, "I'm not happy, and I don't feel like you're as happy as we should be either.
