Without wishing to trivialise Mr. Russ' really very quite serious life decisions and ensuing discussions or owt, I couldn't read past this bit without mentally finishing the sentence with "gonna eat a lot of peaches".
That's all I have to contribute.
Please do carry on.
Apologies, misread your post.
TBF, your version of "in the country" and mine are rather different. I'm a 4 hour journey from Toronto and a 75 minute drive from anything resembling a city.
Also, the people here are largely awful. Braindead white racist Conservatives to a man.
Get a gun.
Have just self scrap heaped. Jim7 nailed it - I can't see things being better in the future.
I'm simultaneously excited and terrified and guilty and confused.
Good luck to you. It’s not been taken lightly, obviously, so I really hope it works out.
Thank you. I'm utterly fucked up by it, I'm 100% certain it's the right decision and yet I'm so destroyed by it. She deserves better than this.
I can imagine. I don’t really know (nor need to) the details but if it wasn’t working, it wasn’t working.
What they said. Hope it works out for both of you.
Thank you.
Good luck Russ.
Good luck to both of you from me too
Yeah, she does. But also she doesn’t deserve worse.. which is what you’re trying to avoid here. Sometimes all the options are shitty.
Best of luck to you both.
The fact you’re aware of it, is probably the most important piece of it…next steps won’t be easy but in the end sounds like the best for both of you. Hope it works out that way.
All the best, Russ. Sounds like the correct decision for the right reasons, but that obviously doesn't make it any easier.
Good luck from me too. One positive is that you don’t have kids, IIRC, so you’ll be spared some of the messier complications.
