Your situation is not at all easy to live through right now. But, even if you may find it difficult to accept, please remember, all such agonies pass with time, even though in your present case, you will find it extremely difficult to pass each day for some time. Even when things settle down, this negative life-event is going to leave an emotional scar in your mind. But, like a lot of people who went through such ordeals in their lives, you too will carry on.
In spite of what has been written above, I would suggest you to try your best to keep the communication between both of you alive and active, without involving close relatives, bringing in ego issues, "who is right and who is wrong" fault-finding activities etc. Try to engage in mature exchanges of communication between both of you. Try convincing him for a few sessions of couple counselling with an experienced psychologist. It will be very soothing for both of you if these efforts work. Things will work out if both of you engage into these with maturity and forgiveness.
Next Steps
Please try out a few couple counselling sessions with an experienced psychologist.

It's difficult to accept that you and your partner will not be together when you don't want the divorce.
But not accepting this fact will only bring sadness in your life.
It will constantly make you worry, will interfere with your daily routine tasks, your work, etc.
I can understand that it's really difficult for you to come to terms with it.
But think about this in a way like what is more hurtful for you: you staying hurt, not being able to do what you want to do, staying hurt or thinking about how you can feel better, how you can manage your daily routine and work better, improve on your feelings and emotions.
Next Steps
Just allow yourself to feel your emotions and let them go.

Going through a separation or divorce can be very difficult, no matter the reason for it. It can turn your world upside down and make it hard to get through the work day and stay productive. But there are things you can do to get through this difficult adjustment.
Recognize that it’s OK to have different feelings. It’s normal to feel sad, angry, exhausted, frustrated and confused—and these feelings can be intense. You also may feel anxious about the future. Accept that reactions like these will lessen over time. Even if the marriage was unhealthy, venturing into the unknown is frightening.

Acceptance related to separation is a daily battle and I am sorry you have to go through it. Detachment and feeling less hurt from it takes time but when you focus on yourself and try to fill your life with more things, that void seems to get smaller with time.
Take professional help so you can navigate smoothly on this road.
More power to you. Takecare

For your own mental health you need to accept the reality, understand that you cannot control another's decisions, and let go. Ask yourself whether you want to be married to someone who does not want to be married to you. Divorce is a life crisis for everyone, even the person who initiates it

Hi. It is very difficult to accept the situation but you are trying with small steps and with time you will see results. For whatever reason your partner has filed for divorce, it is not easy to let go and will emotionally drain you but you have to allow yourself to heal and feel all the emotions coming your way. Acceptance is the first step to healing and this can take time, allow yourself and do take as much time as you want but be sure to not tamper your mental and physical health in the process. Discuss details with your therapist, multiple sessions of the same, interacting with trusted/loved ones might give you new perspectives.
Next Steps
Continue therapy and self care activities.

I'm sorry to hear about the challenging situation you're facing. Dealing with a divorce that you didn't initiate can be emotionally taxing. Acceptance is a gradual process, and it's commendable that you're already in therapy. In addition to therapy, consider journaling your thoughts and feelings. Writing even on the notes app of your phone can serve as a therapeutic outlet, helping you process your emotions and gain clarity. Remember to lean on your support system, friends, and family, as they can provide additional strength during this difficult time. If you find it challenging to accept, be patient with yourself, and continue to explore this in therapy where you can work through these emotions with a professional.

Hi dear concerned, Accepting the divorce phase can be challenging, but it's important to prioritize self-care.
Allow yourself to feel and process emotions, seek support from friends or a therapist, focus on personal growth, and gradually build a new life. Time, self-reflection, and resilience are key elements in navigating this difficult transition and for acceptance.
