Step 1: Plan for their reaction
Plan for your spouse's reaction to the news and prepare yourself for angry outbursts, abject silence, or even crying.

Step 2: Count on a lengthy discussion
Count on a lengthy discussion. Choose a time and place to talk void of distractions such as children or the phone.

Tip
Choose a public place if you fear violence or a dangerous emotional outburst.

Step 3: Write out what to say
Write out what you want to say to be as clear as possible. This will also give you a chance to work out some frustrations, instead of blowing up when you talk to them.

Tip
Avoid critiquing them or pointing out their faults as a husband, father, wife, or mother.

Step 4: Encourage them to talk
Encourage your spouse to talk. The more they can vent, the quicker they will be ready to talk about a reasonable conclusion.

Step 5: Be civil and diplomatic
Be civil and diplomatic. Express to your spouse that you're both in this together, that you will get through this together, and be apathetic to their needs.

Step 6: Avoid placing blame
Avoid placing blame or reliving history. Simply agree things are not working and move on.

Step 7: End the discussion
End the discussion once both sides have had a say. Don't discuss the details of alimony or child custody until you've both had a chance to rest and become less emotional.
