My wife has BPD and wants a divorce

@Ryanlaforest88

Hi--I'm sorry that that's been happening. I can imagine how scary that would be to have your wife ask for a divorce when you really want to stay with her. And I imagine that the fact that she has BPD adds some complications to the situation.

I'm not qualified to say how you should handle this, but here are a few resources I was able to find that have some tips. And HERE is a list of experienced 7 Cups listeners if you'd like to chat with someone.
