So why am I so sad divorcing my ah?
Because he's your husband, and on some level, you still love him.
But here's the thing. When you two took your vows 26 years ago, what was implicit in those vows was neither of you would do anything or introduce anything to compromise your marriage. Your AH didn't hold his end of that bargain up.
So you're doing what you have to do in order to be sane. That doesn't mean you have to like doing it, or that you won't be sad that you have to do it. Of course you're going to be sad.
Take extra care of you today.
