I just saw the other posts about your post history. She has a right to be mad and not want to speak to you ever again. Your actions have been disgusting. I don't blame her for not wanting to speak to you. But it does sound like you guys need to go into serious therapy or just get a divorce. Let this poor woman go.

Thank you. They know how much I am struggling with this as I have vocalized it to them, but they don’t know that they are difficult for me to be around sometimes. I have been to therapy and will return to it because I do think I need some more support right now. I am so sad to miss out on some of the best friendships I’ve ever had, and I will miss them, but I don’t know if it can be a temporary break. I don’t want to reverse any progress I make by reintroducing them into my life afterwards

Your feelings are valid. You are processing trauma. Be honest with your friends about your struggles. If they are as great as you say I’m sure they will understand your need to disengage for a time while you continue your healing journey. It doesn’t have to be a complete and forever break. I hope you have some kind of therapy support available to help you.

An explanation and laying out clear boundaries (just work friends and nothing more) is very good idea.

Also, it might be a good idea to tell your partner if you haven’t already. The truth has a funny way of coming out, and it’s better if it comes from you.
