I need "x" for Christmas because I broke mine...

Of course there is more to the story. In a nutshell, this was the just the flash point for the disintegration of our marriage. A few days later, she acknowledged that she "had feelings for someone else." She then inferred that she had been having an affair for the prior two months, and claimed that all of the time I had spent playing online poker (1-2 hours per weekday evening; 3-4 hours per day on the weekend during bonus periods) was the final straw of the last chapter of a marriage of parallel lives. C'est la vie.

That's harsh man. But you know what? Poker was just her excuse. She caused your marriage to fall apart and was looking for a reason to blame it on you. Feel good that she's now out of your life and you can find someone worthwhile.
