    • Close Breakups & Divorce

      It's been 1 1/2 years since my husband told me he don't love me anymore after 28 years of marriage. I'm lost, confused, alone, scared, very emotional, cry almost all the time. It turns out that he really had an affair with a supposed good friend of mine. He's changed. Everyone thought we were soul mates so it was a real slap in the face. I never saw it coming. His way of thinking though is that I'm a horrible person all of a sudden, everything is my fault, and he pleads the fifth to my lawyer. I have a 2nd deposition coming up January 11th where I have to face him and her together. I don't think I'm going to make it through that. It's hard enough when I have to see him. I can't stop loving him. I miss him so much the pain is unbearable. How do you toss 28 years of what you thought were good and happy years aside? I've never been alone before. I go to counseling, I see a psychiatrist, I'm on medicines, I go to church. Why do I still feel so empty, alone, scared, etc. The divorce won't be final until February 8th, 2007. There are no support groups near where I live. My sons can't stand to see me so depressed and crying all the time so they stay away. My step-mom says I'm a big disappointment to the whole family as I was always the strong, happy one. I find it really hard to function at all. I'm desperate for help. Please!!!!
