I’m so anxious to tell anyone that we are getting divorced. I know everyone will be supportive, so I don’t even know why I’m so nervous about it. I’m not ready yet, I want things to be more for sure before I tell anyone. Right now we are still living together until he finds somewhere to go. I guess I want to wait until he has moved out before I say anything, and it gives me more time to process before I have to tell everyone.

I guess I’m just nervous because everyone loves him. And I’ve always kept our problems between the two of us so I didn’t ruin anyones view on him. So nobody even knows that our marriage wasn’t good, obviously I haven’t tried to pretend it’s perfect either, but nobody thinks it’s bad enough to be over.

What is your experience telling your family and friends?
