I'm leaving you because you are having an affair and you have been emotionally abusive. I forgave you for cheating before, I tried to help you get sober and you made it clear, throughout the past year, that you didn't want to be with me. You didn't want my forgiveness and you didn't want my help with your recovery.

I cannot control how you will twist what has happened over the past year - how you will try to make it my fault - which seems as cruel as the cheating.

You say you were surprised by my asking for a separation and needed time to process it. I was surprised when I found your bottles of Viagra and Cialis. I was surprised when I found airline purchases and jewelry purchases. It has taken a long time for me to process that the man I loved, the marriage that I thought I would be in for the rest of my life, is gone.

I've had some time for the reality of what you've done to sink in. I've been able to really reflect on how you've treated me and realize the emotional abuse you have subjected me to over the past year. Your taunts about Beau, Natalie and Hunter. Your telling me that I'm crazy - that everyone is mad at me and the girls worried about me. Your denials of the cheating and what now appears to be an affair.

I have woken up to my reality. No one should be treated the way you have treated me. I won't take it anymore.

I'm not planning to tell the girls what you have done. You can make that choice. I hope that they can have as healthy a relationship with you as possible.

I hope you are able to finally get sober. I hope you can stop lying about everything and forgive yourself for what you've done. I've forgiven you - I just won't take it anymore.

I'm now waiting for you to respond to my lawyer. Again, it is easiest, less painful, if you and I do a collaborative separation. If you don't want to use the law firm I chose, let me know if you'd prefer another one. I'm anxious to have this all settled so I can move on.
