Dear Gina, I wish I could just put my arms around you and let you cry and comfort you. This may not even happen, I know your husband has mentioned this before, I know all men do from time to time, ask if you can sit down with him and talk to him, you have a daughter and I know he does not want to hurt her and I know he loves you. I know your family will help support you emotionally, for some strange reason I feel in my heart he does NOT want a divorce, did he have a few drinks in him?? When men drink they say things they do not mean. I am here for you, please write me back and let me know if you talked to him and how you are doing, I will be waiting to hear from you. God bless you Gina, Hang on its gonna be alright!!

I'm so sorry Gina! I'll be sending you positive thoughts as I'm sure everyone on this forum will! Good luck and try to believe that there will be an end to your suffering.

Gina, I am sooooo sorry to hear your husband is leaving!! I've been married for 15 years. He's been in my life for so long that I'm not sure how I would get along without him. However, I do know that it is possible - tough at first, no doubt - but, you will make it. Wow.... I'm not even sure what I can say to try to make you feel better or see any light at the end of the tunnel.... I guess all I can say is that we are here for you and you are not alone. I know what you are going through is horrid and it feels like your world is coming to an end. Try to see this as a new beginning. All beginnings are terrifying but you will land on your feet - I know you will make it! You can do this because you are strong!! It will take time so hang in there and have faith you will make it!

Hi Gina, I'm sorry that you have to go through this. Did he say why? I truly now how hard this is, I was married the first time for 11 years, and it crushed me when we split up, he was truly the love of my life. I know at a time like this it doesn't help to say that you will get through this and time will help you to heal, but it truly does, when I was going through my divorce I never thought that I would quit hurting but I did. What made it the hardest was seeing and talking to him, when I got to the point that I didn't see or talk to him for a while, it did start getting easier for me. We had two children together and that made it so much harder for me and the children, but we survived and did have a decent life together. This may just be something that he is going through and needs some time to get his thoughts together. My ex went back and forth and to this day he will tell you it was the worst mistake he ever made. Maybe the two of you just need a little time apart. I hope that you and him will be able to work this out, but if for some reason you can't you can still have a happy and joyful life, you take care of yourself and do what is best for you. Let me know how you are doing. Becky
