I Never Knew - It was over two years ago but I vividly remember the ‘event’ like it happened this morning. We had been married for over six years. At the breakfast table David said, “I want a divorce”. I was simply stunned. All I could think to say was, “Have you lost your mind?”

We were both headed to work and left it with ‘we’ll talk about it this evening’. I remained stunned all day. All I could think of was there must be another woman. 

As it turns out there wasn’t another woman (yet – there was later – he’s since remarried). It seems as though for the previous two years he had been feeling that our life together was stagnating – our sex life was getting boring – and our social life was very unexciting (Saturday nights dining out, TV after dinner during the week, etc, etc). In fairness, he did mention several times about some changes we could try in our sex lives – which I dismissed as being too uncomfortable for me to consider. At the time I just thought it was idle conversation. Guess it wasn’t.

I didn’t fall out of love – He did.
