I have been going through a separation now for the past month and am worried I am fighting a losing battle. I have been married for 5 years and up until about 4 months ago I was totally unaware we had issues this bad.
Story: My W left a little over a month ago, said she wanted a divorce and now has little contact with me. We had a conversation soon after she mentioned the divorce and i was told that she isn't sure divorce is what she wants. However, she has already divided all of our stuff and has found her own place. She is telling me that she needs space to figure things out on her own. She also said I need to do the same; I agree, but I don't think complete separation is the answer. I have limited contact via text, email or tele. I am being treated much like a complete stranger when I do get contact. This is very strange to me as we have been so close for so long.
I am really confused and feel like I am in a horrible circle of wait and worry. i am doing a lot of things on my own, but I don't find much comfort due to the grey area of the relationship's status.
I tried several times to get to the bottom of her wanting to leave but every time I was met with anger and a seemingly lack of care. Every once in a while during conversation a small glimmer of light will sneak in, but it quickly gets turned into a dark cloud on her part.
