Likely to be out for a while

All good advice.

Yeah, My daughter definitely comes first. I know plenty of children can come through a divorce fine. But from what I've read, the odds are stacked against them. Hopefully, that won't be the case here.

The funny thing is, I don't really hate my wife. Don't have much anger there at all. Hurt, sure, but not really anger. I understand her position. I don't agree with it. Probably never will. But I can understand it. We just spent too long growing apart before either of us realized we needed to do something about it. By the time we did, it was too late.

Obviously the appropriate action here is to wait until the divorce is final...

...and then start banging all of her friends.

Sure sounds you got your feet on soil, not going to repeat all the good advice allready here..

Just wanted to put out there that My Own childhood might have been better (and My younger sisters) if our parents separated. It was hell in our house for plenty of years. I think for us, as kids, we wouldve had a better childhood if that was the case.
Better to have a 50/50 situation than two parents arguing and making life difficult for the kids.

On the other hand, they are happy now though. When we all have moved out and got our Own family. 😁

---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- Will turn out great, I'm sure!

I'm going through this exact same thing.  I was completely blindsided too.  She just one day told me she didn't love me anymore and that was that.  She refused to try anything, no counseling, nothing.  I had no clue.  It's been almost two years, and I still love her, unfortunately.  She had 'grown apart', I never had.  You're not alone, man.  The only difference was that she left, instead of pushing me out.  She did, though, stick me with all the bills, and the bankruptcy for that is almost completed...
