I actually had a decent weekend. Went to CT with my son and his fiance to meet her parents and go to the Big E fair. Talked to my husband …
I can't believe it's been almost a month since I've written in here. So much has happened since then. After he told me the …
We did it!!! We actually sat down the other day and he told me about all the whens and wheres. That was the big part for me. I needed him to …
Well he has said he will tell me everything. We have company now but they should be leaving on Saturday sometime. So Sunday is the day we …
It is tough. I still have some hope for our marriage, but she needs to make the effort now. I have spent too much time and energy bending over backwards for her and the more I gave, the more she seemed to resent me. Like you, I have kids and myself to think of and I am sorry that she is unhappy, but if she will not seek help in getting at whatever is going on in her head, I can't let us get dragged down with her. He has to be willing to make the effort with you and if he isn't, at least you now know where you stand. Keep standing and let's get out there and face Monday! :^)
I know that feeling. Once my wife realized that I was actually learning to stand on my own and planning for a life without her, she began to doubt her resolve. Even if we stay together, and that's only if she is willing to change the way that she treats me, I will be a stronger person in the end and will no longer let others dictate who I am and where I am going. At least thinking this gives me the strength to be honest and move forward. Actually putting it into practice is the hard part.
You are my first hug. I know how hard this is and it does hurt, especially when they say they love you and then continue hurting. I thought she was my best friend, but she wouldn't have done this to her worst enemy. We are bigger than the pain and don't forget...SKI SEASON IS COMING!!!!!
Hope you feel better as the day goes.
Be patient with him. He sounds like he is at least gong to try. I wish you two the best.
I found out that my husband of 24yrs has been having an affair with a childhood friend for the past 6 mo. It started when his parents hosted the friends family for a gettogether. The two talked and enchanged cell #s and emails. W/in 2 wks they arranged to meet at a hotel in Toronto. She's from Ontario and we're in Central NY. I discovered that he extended an already long trip overseas (he travels alot) by meeting her for 2 nights before and 2 nights after his trip. I am devastated.
I'm 41 years old and going through a difficult time. Cut myself for the first time EVER a month ago. Cut twice since and feel drawn to continue. I KNOW it's not a good thing but the emotional pain I'm dealing with is more than I can bear sometimes.
