The holidays are supposed to be a happy time...
They weren't. Before the holidays my wife went into super woman mode in order to try to save the realtionship. The day after my "revelation" that I didn't want to be in the relationship anymore we had our first counselling session. We both agreed that we had completely abandoned our relationship. We found that the last time we had fun together was on our honeymoon over two years ago. We had been together living separate lives for much longer than that. Hell, I even have newspaper articles about us admitting to that fact.
After I found out that my "girlfriend" didn't want to get involved I confessed to an online affair. I just assumed that it would be a good way to let my wife know what was going on. I don't think that it was a real good idea now. I later confessed to the whole thing which may have been a poorer decision. Time will tell.
We decided to tell our parents when we went to their respective houses. We told them that we were having problems and didn't get into any details. We asked them to keep it in the family and let us work it out. When I was at my parents I was fine except for wanting to talk to my girlfriend. I was seriously upset about that. Selfish I know.
At her parents I pretended to be sick. It wasn't too hard since neither of us had slept or eaten in about a week. All in all it was a really bleak picture that was being painted. I was not sure what was going to happen next and didn't really want to think about it....
