Hi
I'm currently in a situation where I'm having a trial separation for a few months from my long term partner of 15 years. We have had the most amazing time and had 4 wonderful children together. We agreed to a trial separation so we could spend time apart to evaluate our relationship and really get in touch with our emotions as things were becoming difficult together. Now I've realised so much during this time apart, how much I love my partner, miss her dearly and that I admit, I took her for granted and became lazy and complacent and clearly didn't fulfill her needs both physically and emotionally. I'm desperate to tell her all of this but worried that during this time apart she will realise that she's finally had enough and would be better off without me.
My question is this, has anyone been through a trial separation and if so did it make your relationship stronger or did it make things worse and you ended up splitting up?
My heads a mess and I'm worried that I could lose the women of my dreams, the only women I've ever loved.
