So, as I last posted I have a lot going on. About a month ago I told Anja I wanted a divorce. This was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. It’s not like I hate Anja or she did something to hurt me, I just haven’t been happy. It hurt to see her so upset. In fact I dreaded coming home, because I would see her in pain. So here we are. Not in the best of situations. Just bought a house, have a bit of combined debt, and all the emotion that comes with a break up.
The good news is that things are going pretty well. Anja seams to be doing pretty well. We’ve been hanging out with our respective friends. She has big plans that include a new job, and moving about an hour south of Portland. It makes me happy to see Anja happy again. She’s almost back to the old Anja. The Anja that stole my heart over 7 years ago. I know things aren’t going to work. We’re not going to get back together, but it’s nice to see her smile again. Nice to see the twinkle in her eye. She deserves to be happy as do I.
I think we both just got comfortable and stuck in our routines. We grew up together. I’ve spent my entire adult life with her. Things Change… People Change… We’ve Changed. I think this is the best thing for myself and for us. I hope Anja will one day see it as such too.

Wow, to do this and care for one another in the process. Kudo’s to both of you and my thoughts are with you. Who’s getting the house?
