I have never posted anything before but I don't know where else to go. My husband and I have been married for just over a year and I have never been so unhappy in all my life. I have thought about a divorce before but now is the first time that I think I will work up the courage to actually start the process. Shortly after we married we moved away from all my family and friends. I am so lonely and have no one to confide in about this. He is really mean to me, in fact I think we are both mean to eachother. I know that we aren't even friends anymore, we never talk about things other than just business stuff. I think we married much too soon. I am 26 and he's 35, and it makes me cry to think I'll be spending the rest of my life with him. I feel as though I could go on and on about how bad things are. i am so scared to do this. I guess, I would like to know if there is anyone who has been here before.<BR>Thank you
