About Guilt and depression...
1st time poster.. hello All..
I am 40, male and confused..
I am not at all experienced with failed marriages ..I am finding out it is not the same as simply breaking up (even though there is no wrangling at all over assets) In that there are Kids involved (hers) and there is this Guilt and feeling of failure that do not accompany a normal breakup..
To make a long story short.. I am seriously considering getting back with my wife.. Because I feel the depression of staying with her will be less than the guilt I feel for leaving her and her children..
I am used to being depressed or dealing with less than spectacular situations.. but not to dealing with guilt..
Has anyone faced a similar conflict and who could offer a little advice or insight.. I would be eager to listen ..
thanks
