CF coming up April-May
I need advice. I have been wanting to do this Camino for quite awhile. My husband has only shown a slight interest until now that I have begun to plan and collect my pack and equipment. We have been very happily married for 38 years next week. We married when we were 21 and I like to say we raised each other. How do I tell him I need to do this without him? I need to be scared, figure things out myself, make decisions based on what I want to do, not what "We" want to do. I don't feel I will do the emotional growing if he is there to protect me and do the hard stuff. I'm not a wimp, I am a strong women. This is a scary thing I'm planning and it would be much easier with him, but I will not grow. I am working on getting over the loss of my identical twin and I want to weep and wail if I need to without scaring people. Has anyone had to tell their beloved spouse or partner that they need to go it alone for this journey. Sorry to be so wordy.
