Emotion: disgust
Problem: breakup with partner
Situation: Well, my wife of 10 years just decided to request a divorce, which is very unexpected.  She is saying that she is moving out with the two kids.

user: Well, it has been a hard week. My wife decided to separate from me with the two klids.

assistant: Whats been going on? Oh no, that's not good

user: I am disgusted....just like President Donald Trump is with the $600 dollar stimulus checks.

assistant: Ain't that the truth.

user: It just isn't my fault. My wife had no right to leave California without me. I made a mistake making California my home.

assistant: I'm sure it isn't, how long had you been together? California is beautiful I know, but it can also be pretty quick paced.

user: We were together 10 years. I am just disgusted that it had to happen at this point. Christmas week, of all weeks.

assistant: Are you still working?

user: I am still working right now. Luckily, California has plenty of money for bureacrats lie myself. I contributed to the marriage for sure. I love my wife and my great kids

assistant: It's important that you know that you can feel whatever way you need to about your loss. Its a tough time of year for something like that. Had things been pretty rocky?

user: Things like this were sudden. I mean, I never expected her to up and walk out with the kids. The only thing I can think of was that California was getting too expensive and the homeless were taking over LA; that may have spooked her to leave the state.

assistant: Wow, that's horrible. It seems you should have some kind of legal authority in that aspect. Is that a big problem out there?

user: I really don't have any discourse. The kids are almost 18. They are twins. Yeah, in her eyes, she seems fed up with the state. She left me for Texas, the state, not the person. I mean, she never mentioned loving, "Text," but the kids are bing into the Dallas Cowboys

assistant: It is important that you understand that it seems that she has been thinking of this for a while.

user: I overhead her say that Texas is a free state and my twin boys do love the Dallas Cowboy's team.

assistant: Does she have family there?

user: Yes, she does. Both her parents live in Laredo.....big spread, too.

assistant: Have you spoken with her since she left?

user: Well, she left two days ago. I came home and the furniture and my widescreen TV were all gone. We lived in a small apartment in LA.

assistant: That's mid-boggling..

user: I am D-I-S-G-U-S-T-E-D to the Nth degree.

assistant: Do you have any hobbies?

user: Any help to get her to come back would help. My hobbies are on hold.....I need to get "un-disgusted" first.

assistant: Well, I can't make her come back, but I can provide you with some information on how to get through these tough times.

user: ok. I am all ears.....

assistant: I understand, it can be good to help get some stress out in other ways. Do you excercise? What kind of hobbies do you have?

user: I have a gym membership....if they are even open with the COVID-19. Maybe I can just jog or speed walk every day. Perhaps pushups can help?

assistant: I like to run every morning, and it seems to help make alot of stress evaporate.

user: Oh, that may just help me relax and think about other things besides my wifey and twin kiddos. Well, your input has helped.

assistant: I have found for me anyway, that running is an amazing stress reliever.
