Oh, Labrat! I can so relate to this. I've been twice divorced and I felt about my first husband like you feel about yours. I've been divorced from him for 14 years and I can honestly say that I wish I had tried harder to keep it together with him. Not because he's a great person or "perfect" for me, but because I didn't try, I didn't allow for the possibility of growth; I just jumped out of the marriage the way I had jumped in. Hang in there, you've got plenty of time to sort this out. Don't do anything rash. Counseling is the best thing you can do for yourself but make sure you respect the counselor, trust his/her judgement, etc. Give yourself some TIME. Breathe. Kiss your daughter. I wish you the best.
