How is it that a happy family leads to divorce?

Don't want to go into details - and to put ten years of details in here would take about...10 years. But trust me it can.

No idea how difficult this must be for you ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)
Having been through some life changing experiences myself recently the one thing that makes a big difference is talking with friends, as well as with other family members(my sister and father in my case), regularly whether by skype or meeting them .
It can help also to have professional counselling, there are charities that provide counselling at a very low cost.
Things do change and improve - wishing you all the best.

I can only imagine how it is to have your family breaking apart. Or actually I can't.
But you have my empathy.

Sorry to hear this news. Keep you chin up. It will get easier as time goes by, if you let it.

Meh! What doesn't kill you makes you wish it had! You can survive divorce. Just see how totally normal, unbitter, and balanced I've become in the past 16 years of mind sapping, gut wrenching, miserable loneli ... oh! 
I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!

I too have been through this. And I appreciate how hard this can be.
I hope that one day your children (?) will appreciate you and reach out. I still wait for such from my own children (all adult now), but I have also moved on with my life. It is enough for now that they know that you are there, when they are ready to find you.
In the meantime I am able to see one of my daughters has become a mother with a beautiful baby boy (me a grandfather, who would have thought...). I have reached out to her, so I hope that one day she will do so as well...

I know the feeling. If you didn't have a marriage/family counselor get one; mine was invaluable to me.
Don't become the a**hole divorced dad. Spend as much time as you can with your kids. Lose yourself with them. In my case, my youngest was a teen, my oldest in her twenties, who has a daughter. In many ways, that granddaughter saved my life. Spending time with her, with her unconditional love, helped me beyond words.

The wife of the elephant, obviously.
Pay more attention, in future.

Watch: Man demonstrates how to make deep-fried water - UPI.com[^]
WHY?!??!
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???
