Pretty sure my wife is going to go through with our divorce (she has initiated actions in the past, but never got this far in terms of getting papers signed).  I am okay with a divorce because of the abuse I have experienced, but am concerned about post-divorce issues.  I have stayed in the relationship in order to protect my son who is now 13. I will no longer be able to fully protect my son from my wife’s BPD symptoms & behaviors.  I’m also concerned that my wife will have difficulty fully letting me go, especially if I ever get into another relationship much further down the road.  It’s been a 19 year roller-coaster.

Sorry, this ended up in the wrong category.  I reposted under the divorce category.
