You still here?

I'm in Glasgow

4 weeks later after being told I don't love you anymore but don't know why, watching me near enough have a mental breakdown whilst denying that it's an affair, he admits the truth after I find phone records.

LIES LIES LIES

we're in counselling but he's just going through the motions I believe because he can't face what a S*it he is being. Still saying they haven't slept together but doesn't really matter if they have. The texting was killing me.. Right inb front of me.

put him out because I fear I would actually kill him

I've been to hell and something just snapped in me today. I think I'm shutting down.

Never, ever ever in a millions years did I expect this from my H.

I actually though he was ill.

Anyway, I'm starting to get myself together, hopefully so would love to meet up or message. Think i've joined every divorce board in the world with my pity posts :dry:


Somehow, I'm going to get myself through this.

Hi all

I'm actually from Aberdeenshire. I too find friends and family lose interest - they simply cant understand. not their fault i suspect, there are some things in life which only those who experience them can understand (bereavement, having children, etc. and I suggest an acrimonious divorce is one of these).

I am on msn (I think? my kids have set me up lol!) and would be delighted to chat with like-minded injured parties from Scotland. :)

prof, xx

I've been spreading my misery around all my friends. If one more person tells me I'm strong and this will be the making of me, I'll scream. lol

I'm fighting with myself not to lower myself and expose them but I know it will just make me look desperate

Hi Miss Haversham.
No I'm not a native. In fact I am from Yorkshire originally - we moved up her 6 years ago from Manchester. The STBX is from Edinburgh. Anyway I love it up here and the kids adore it so we have no plans to move back down South. Only thing is, I miss my family and friends and it has been really really tough from that standpoint. We separated in 2005 (soon after we moved up) and because my support network was all down in England I have struggled. Still I survived and the end of the nightmare is in sight I hope!

Do you have kids?
Prof!xx

Boy Mug .... do I know where you are coming from? I was really struggling trying to hold it all together (and disintegrating in the process) and went to the doctors eventually. He was superb! Said he'd be worried about me if I wasn't stressed, miserable, depressed and low given what I was going through! Said I was allowed to feel terrible, not to expect to do it all alone (recover that is) and never once told me to be strong. Magic!! I started to recover from then on. Someone who accepted how terrible I felt. So, I know how you feel! big hug....
Prof, xx

I just can't believe it has happened but I have accepted it now. He watched me nearly break down and still would not admit it. That's what gets me, there was no warning, nothing. He is trying to manipulate me but not going to win.

He is a stranger, total alien. and a big coward. I'm not bitter lol.

I don't know what his problem is, if you don't love someone or think you've made a mistake, come clean. What was the point of putting me through it. He just ended up hating himself.

Anyway onwards and upwards. I've lost 18lbs and feel great now. Every cloud eh :-)
