Life: A divorce announcement

This entry is meant to be a rather personal announcement to my friends.


My (ex-) wife and I, we are divorced.

We had quite different personalities. It was a source of our initial attraction. However, over time, the differences in the ways we see and feel things led to dissatisfaction, especially on her side. What I valued meant little to her, and what she loved I did not appreciate enough. The quiet dissatisfaction led to a communication breakdown. 

Once communication broke down, a relationship can deteriorate quickly. One thing led to another. 

Earlier this year, we reached to a point where both of us found reconciliation difficult.

So we decided to dissolve our marriage peacefully. We took our lessons. Yes, sometimes love hurts. We are divorcing for the better for both. I personally wish her well in her journey.



RIP our marriage

I will fondly remember the good times

Among many well-meaning comments I received so far, "Welcome to the club" was somehow particularly soothing. Thanks, Tom.
