My Family Standard Fell Apart

The Story

It may sound strange, but I suffer terribly because of the divorce of a friendly family. They were just an example for me of young people who love each other, pursue their dreams and are great parents. Their young child is 1 year old. From the side they look like from a magazine, beautiful, smiling, full of life. The man has a business in another country and travels often, and she has a successful business here. Somehow they managed to live without almost separating, she went with him, the children spent time with their relatives there. Abe, they looked like they had found the golden mean. I was very happy and admired them. The other day they invited us to see each other and told us that they had decided to separate. They said they had no common vision for the future, imagining life in different directions in the future. He returns to his homeland, she stays here with the children. I cried. They calmed me down, that they are happy with their decision to remain close friends. I asked them if a third person had interfered in their marriage, they even found it funny, and he hugged her and said that he loved her with all his soul, she answered the same - just life ... They said nothing more. I have the feeling that I am experiencing it harder than them. Is it because I project myself on them, my husband also has a business in another country, but he is a Bulgarian citizen and has no desire to live elsewhere. We don't do half as well as they do. We have domestic quarrels, fatigue from work, I often go out alone with the children, they on the other hand were everywhere together. I just don't understand how they can love each other, be close friends, have children and make such a decision. I'm sad. It's as if the thought "If they failed, where are we going" echoes in my head. Even my husband is sad, although he believes this may be temporary. I try to be a support to my girlfriend, she says that their decision is final, but everything is fine. She is not talked about at all and I do not open it anymore. I try to respect that. Just like that, I selfishly suffer for my shattered illusion of the perfect family.
