I am in the process of divorcing my husband b/c after our three-year marriage, I realized that I don't truly love him. He is my best friend but that is it. I have always felt this way and never wanted to admit it to myself (or anyone else), though many friends and my sister knew that. We got married fast after the person I was dating passed away suddenly. I fell into my hsbnd/ex? arms b/c I was hurting, etc. He is a person I "should" love but just can't. So I had to think of my life and what is best for me long-term. I can see myself w/ other men and want to live alone, get through some past issues and be ready to love someone again.

I just want to know if I'm the only woman who's done this??? I doubt that I am, but would like to hear any comforting stories.

Thanks!!
