Wife walked out on us.

I dont know how to say this, or why I am even here its like a bad nightmare and I feel all alone.
My wife of 19 years walked out of our home on Wed evening. She had taken all her belongings to a rented house 5 miles away. My poor son was left alone waiting for me to return from work. As i entered the drive i had a sick feeling in the pit of my stomch as i felt something was wrong. I went into the house and my son said your not going to like it dad. On the table was a note from my wife explaining that she had to leave. She said i was a good husband and father but things hadnt been right for some time, and although i wouldnt like it. It would be for the best.
I was devestated and broke down to be consoled by my 13 year old son.
We are both in pieces and hug each other looking for a reason as we thought we were a happy family unit.
We always did stuff together at the weekends. I feel sick at the thought of no mother here for my son, the bed feels so big and the house so empty, i/we need some help

Dear Trx

Welcome to Wiki

This is the best place to be for support and advice and we also have chat rooms for you to get to know the other members.

I`m so sorry about your wife, even worse for you when you had no idea about her leaving.

It would be good if you were able to meet up and have a talk with her and try and discover what has gone wrong and why she felt she need to leave. At least you have your son with you and you can both be a support for each other, I feel for you both and wish you luck in trying to sort something out.


Take care of yourself and be strong for your son as he needs you even more now. Keep posting and let us know how you are.

Big hugs
