There's little I can add to what the others have already said so well, except that I think you have a very forgiving soul...

Re: JimmyA

LOL.  I think you may be right.

And no matter what the circumstances, I would have to assume that, if you end up on the Jerry Springer show, there's not going to be a happy ending . . .

how true it is that the tears may go away, but the heartache remains.

The Jerry Springer scene is a funny one to imagine.

Re: Pat_B

You know, that's exactly what I always said....before...
Now, I think that one does not really know what one will do in a given situation....until...

You know, if my first husband had just walked out, I would not have

minded. I do not think I'd have let him come back - but my situation was different.

Sometimes when you haven't faced a situation or problem personally I feel you are not in a position to say what would have been the best way to handle it yet it's best to part ways than live in an unhappy atmosphere.Reading your journey backwards is as interesting and inspiring as your present day journal.🌹

I expect by the second time you you were mature enough to realize you could exist more harmoniously as good friends. Not a bad way, for the sake of the children, it is sad when the kids are torn between two loyalties.

There are two types of people one may marry and not realize it before hand; one is not mentally competent to marry and the other is abusive. Othere than those I think most othere differences can be worked out if both parties want to do so.

Marriages are so interesting, aren't they? Organic things....they really are each an individual contract between two people, most unwritten, most unspoken or even specifically negotiated....but the two parties each think they know when the other has broken some part of the agreement....for perhaps the final time.  Many reading your post would find it so strange....I don't particularly because I have shared confidences about many marriage "contracts" and am never surprised.  I really wish sometimes that we would go back to the days of parents negotiating actual marriage contracts.
