DH and I are divorcing. We're staying married/living together until the spring at which point we'll get a divorce and the kids and I will move back to Canada.
He's saying he's being calm about this because he's already processed it all.
We still care about each other and will remain good friends. We've mutually agreed there's just no way in hell we can remain married. So I do care about his well being.
Any advice on what I can do to help him get in touch with his feelings about this, or at least be the most supportive for him through all this?
He's already said (just last night even) I'm the best woman in the world he could ever hope to have married, and hands down the best mother. I guess one of my concerns is him spiralling downwards with blame on himself. And while it really is pretty much is fault we're splitting, it'll do him no good to focus on that.
Advice?
