Saddest was a newly divorced man trying to heal and move on feeling like he had done something wrong when we were done.
Literally been there. I am in my mid-30's and I was married for my entire adult life. I had one partner, and at the time was happy about it.
Two years after my divorce, the first time I tried to be intimate with someone went so poorly. I was shaking nervous. You know logically you aren't cheating, but the instinct is so strong after so many years you still feel horrible. It physically affected me. I just couldn't.
It took some therapy to be able to move on... it's still not easy, and to be honest it has destroyed my sex life.
