It’s wrong.<br />
A marriage will lose its spark after some years but if the couple wants to keep the marriage going, then they will work on it. Understanding each other and finding out the root of any unhappiness.</p>
<p dir="auto">Personally I wanted the split because I felt lonely in the marriage. When I wanted to discuss, it sounded like alarm bells. On my part, I started to realise what I want and felt shortchanged.<br />
It’s so true that one gets to know the true personality of the spouse at the end of the relationship. It’s rare for couples to split amicably. If the decision is to break up, make it a clean cut and have no contact.<br />
After the divorce, move on. It took me quite a while to do so.</p>

It’s been a long time since I have been away.<br />
A lot has happened during this period. Finalized my divorce in 2023.<br />
It wasn’t easy to move on initially. For me, I felt emotionally neglected in the marriage and it doesn’t make sense continuing although I had comments that it was a silly move since the kids are grown up. It’s precisely bcos the kids have grown up which allowed me to make this decision. I understand the pain they went through.</p>
<p dir="auto">My kids are 22 and 26. Older one just started working after he finished his studies. Younger one is studying.</p>

We were always on the right \"frequency\" in our naked or kinky intimacies. Our penthouse home was perfect. The kitchen immaculate, overlooking a most lovely island. Our decor was stunning, earning praises and delight from our parents and friends. We owned a luxurious white Benz, and our vacations were always instagrammable. We purchased presents for each other, indulged in expensive spas and their products. We felt it was worth our monies spent. Our love was often enhanced by spending money.  We ate the best food. Our careers proceeded well, paying us huge bonuses.<br /> <br />Alas, as many have said, all good things have to come to an end. And so it did. One thing leads to another, with him eventually straying. On  divorce papers, I naturally put the blame on him entirely, to maximise  my share of asset division.
