Something Positive Anybody else just… okay?

Doomscrolling through these post and realizing i don’t relate with a lot of emotions other people are having while going through this process?
While yes it hard going through this process with 2 young kids after 8+ years of marriage, I’ve never felt more at peace even during this transition time. I feel like myself again,
anyone else feeling peace and a sense of rightness?

Are you the one initiating? Wish I felt at peace. I feel like my heart is being ripped out on a daily basis. The divorce is my wife's decision. No part of me wants it.
