I made a decision to tell my ex-wife in person before the banquet. She initially took the news very well. The girl told me that she was happy for me, said congrats, and then we went back to working. Now comes the morning of the banquet. It begins, my fiancee comes, shows she’s pregnant, and starts to do her speech. It had been during her speech that will my ex walked off. She didn’t walk away from in a dramatic manner, but since she was next to me, I noticed. My finacee gestured for me to go talk to her and that’s what I did.

I found my ex crying in the lobby and we started talking. Turns out about a few days prior, she went to the doctor and they explicitly told her this time that she will never ever be able to carry a child. The lady hadn’t been actively attempting anymore but it hurt to know. She said she seemed she failed me & wasted my time. I actually quickly shut that down. I will never put any fault on her for us not having a child. We had a really good conversation about it, a conversation that was a lot needed and returned towards the banquet. The next day she talented us a lot of the baby things that’s been in our old home, which really meant a lot. I think it’s great that we talked about this and really helps us going forward. I’m therefore excited about this next chapter of my life and can’t wait around to see what’s in store. Thanks for all the advice.
