suddenly abandoned after20 yrs of marriage, he ceased all communication 6 mos ago, suddenly I am a single parent and the man I love and who believed loved me wants no contact. My life disappeared in an instant I can't find any closure or ratioale he has not initiated any divorce proceedings I think he is just waiting for me to do it. I am so depressed terrified, and I have become seriously socially phobic. I can't find my way and it's getting worse not better -

I've been left alone completely disabled with CFIDS after the death of my husband five plus years ago. I have a severe borken heart from being abandoned by the Christian community that God has told to care for widows in distress. I understand why God had to give the church first opportunity to care for me as a widow alone and in need and He is now allowing others to know of my needs so I know the needed help will be coming soon. God has been so very good to me throughout all of this.

Im new here, so I hope I type things right. My stepfather who raised me, still haunts me to this day on why he died. He was in a wheelchair because he was in a very bad car accident in the 70's. But he was only getting ready to turn 50. I still miss some type of structure because my mother does not know how to take care of herself, so I ended up doing it even after having my surgery. I still remember some of the things that he told me, and he was right. It has been 6 years now, but still hurts just like it was yesterday. I need a parent to lean on. -

It's always difficult to lose a parent. My mother died on December 23, 2003 and while this is the 5th anniversary, it still hurts. There are no easy answers but I hope you have someone there you can talk to. -

I have recently discovered that my h has been having an affair 4 2 yrs, i thought that our marriage was good. there have been some rough times, but i never considered this a possibility. my h is a minister. our pastor now knows. we're in counseling. i dont know if i can 4give him. i dont know if i want 2 4give him. he has ended the affair,but i feel like im settling 2 b w/someone who loves someone else. i love him very much,but this has ruined my view of him our marrige and its messing w/myview of me. i dont feel he deserves my 4giveness. i dont want someone who is settling 4 me. i feel if he was really in love w/me he could not have done what hes done. i dont know if he will ever again or not. but mostly he was that very special love 4 me and this has ruined that and w/o that i wonder why be 2gether. -

Its a terrible blow to your very soul when your trusted "best friend" your husband has an affair. It spins you out of control with self doubts, anger, hurt, self worth. It shakes your trusted lie foundation. You must know it was not you. It is not because of some "problem" with you. It is a problem with him and only him. He has doubts about himself. If he was sincere about your marriage he would have come to you with his "problem" for help before seeking another woman.( like thats the answer!!). Also, because he is a minister it puts a different twist on the affair. Firstly it gives youa possible doubt of Gods love. Then he is not practicing the word in which he preaches. Every time he chose this affair over his commitment to God and his marrage it has sinned. He should not be a minister. He has failed to lead by example not once but everytime he choose to do the wrong thing to you,God and his church. HE has issues with himself and HIS relationship with God. It is not about you - - ALL him. Do as you feel right. You are worth a good relationship with both God and a husband. I hope this may help you in some way. Take the time to think things over and DO NOT TAKE THE BALME. Trust yourself.
