Thanks Nickname,I have re-read the thread and it has helped a great deal.This feels like grief,it keeps swelling over in me in waves.I am having trouble focusing on work/school/children..Everything seems blurry from when I wake up until when I fall asleep.Its all so final and frightening.

Yes, you need to give yourself permission to grieve. You're letting go of the hope that someone can wave a magic wand and make the relationship better, and that is a sad thing to do.

of course you are grieving. you are bring an end to a relationship. however soiled it was.
you also loved this man. it doesn't matter that our head tells us it is wrong, your heart is stil telling you that you love him.

The guilt is totally natural. you will have it for quite some time. and for various things.

but eventually the guilt will subside and instead it will be replaced with the most overwhelming sense of pride. pride that you are now free, that you took the most enormous life changing step for you and yoru dc's.

I don't know you and i am massivly proud of you.

please do keep us informed of how you are getting on.
