My husband and I were together for 2 years before we got married. When I look at it now it seems odd that we ever made it that far. We were definetly complete opposites. Of course...at that time I was so in love and "blinded" by that love. I couldn't see what the world around me saw. (a hopeless relationship) In a lot of ways, I was blessed I guess in my short lived marriage. My husband never cheated on me, and told me he loved me all the time. It was more of the things he didn't do that ended our marriage.
My dad had tripple bypass surgery early last year. We actually rushed him to the hospital the day we got married. I started noticing even then how much my husband...the man I'd just married...wasn't there for me. Dad was in the hospital for 12 days. My husband was no where to be seen.
Things continued on in our marriage....mostly with me ignoring all of the signs that things were not right between us. Then the unthinkable happened. My little brother committed suicide. I think going through that was the last straw. It truly made me realize that when I needed my husband the most...he just wasn't there. Just 3 months later, my husband walked out.
I'm at the point now where I've come to terms with it. I'm not happy the way things turned out, but I truly believe his leaving is for the best...I just want to move on with my life! I'm tired of the hurt and the pain.

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...

My husband left 7 months ago as he couldn't put up with me having Multiple Sclerosis and my expecting him to be supportive. At first I was devastated but I have gotten stronger as the time goes by and actually have a better life now without him. Even in the times when I've been sick I've found it better to be without him as it means I can concentrate on myself and not be doubly upset with him not giving me his support which I felt I deserved.
I know it's a cliche but time really does make all the difference. Keep a journal so you can look back in a few weeks and see how far you've come and this will help give you strength as well.
All the best and I know there is something better out there for both you and I.
