Hello there-

I am new to MB, and I just don't know where to start. I have been married for 14 1/2 years, and my husband came home one day and told me he didn't love me anyone, and there was someone else. We currently still reside in the same house, and he is gone every weekend. It saddens me each time he walks out the door to go to her. I feel lost and asshamed I failed at my marriage.

Who is OW?
Is she married?
Divorced?
A co-worker of his?

Oh Honey

Welcome to MB, the club no one wants to join.

First go to the newbies thread. Read lots. The vets will be along soon with next steps. Listen to them, they are scary in their accuracy.

Do what they say, even if it feels wrong. If you want to keep your marriage, still love the alien that is your husband, even tho you don't recognise who he just lately, just follow what they say.

If I had found this in time, well lets just say 5 years might have been better spent!

Thinking of you

Blessings


Me 50
WH 52
WH in A 6 yrs in total, last 5 yrs JGF (Not!)
DD final 1.12.10
NC letter sent 3.12.10

Working at being the best I can be, the rest is up to you.

He is still a plonker, but he is my plonker!
