Reply To: Tell me it’s ok to divorce

Divorce is always okay.

I don’t remember your wife’s situation that caused the chronic pain, but it sounds like it’s mental. Like she’s mentally very unwell, and it’s manifesting as this condition of extreme pain. Is that accurate? Or was there an accident or something that caused this, and the pain is driving her crazy?

Either way, it sounds like it’s already over, and yes, of course it’s all right to move forward with a divorce. You can still care about her well being and support her in getting the help she needs, but you don’t have to be married to her.
