So, this is my first blog, ever. Hence the ingenious title. :)

I am recently separated and find it really hard to think about a relationship of any kind, but I know I need friends, and I know I need people to talk to and confide in.

I did everything I possibly could to make my marriage work, but it just didn't. It's a horrible feeling to know you failed, but why continue doing something that just isn't working and doesn't   more...

So, this is my first blog, ever. Hence the ingenious title. :)

I am recently separated and find it really hard to think about a relationship of any kind, but I know I need friends, and I know I need people to talk to and confide in.

I did everything I possibly could to make my marriage work, but it just didn't. It's a horrible feeling to know you failed, but why continue doing something that just isn't working and doesn't look like it ever will. I spent the last two years trying to fix things, but I realized that as much as I did to fix myself, I could not fix my wife. Only she can do that.

I love my kids more than anything in the world, and will do everything I can to help them live a happy life. Unfortunately, part of doing that is not staying with my wife. It seems a cruel irony to me.

I think that's about it for this first post. Much more will follow in the coming days, months, and probably even years.

Thanks for reading. less...
