separation

today we went to see our therapist. the therapist recommends that we get separated.

we are planning on having my stbx move out of the house officially after the holidays.

i am in shock. i am feeling crushed.

we are planning on keeping it a secret until after the holidays so our children won't freak out or associate the separation with the holidays.

my stbx seems to be handling it very well, compared to me.

oh and the kids are so young :(

I hope it all goes fairly smoothly. I'm sure you'll both do what's right for the kids

wow, i'm sorry. it's good to keep it hush hush until after the holidays...for you and the kids. i didn't read your profile and it may answer the question i'm about to ask..but why would a therapist advise separation? hugs to ya girl, and a shoulder to cry on if needed.
