Separated and conflicted. Is this normal?
Separated, still emotionally tangled up in it, and honestly trying to figure out what “moving forward” is supposed to look like at this age.
Some days I miss companionship. Some days I miss intimacy. Some days I just miss having someone to text when something good happens.
I’m not really interested in pretending I have it all figured out. I still wear my wedding ring. I still love my wife. But I’m also lonely, confused, and trying to understand what’s normal in this stage of life.
Guess I’m just wondering if other people around this age have felt this conflicted too.
