When you feel the need to beg and plead, come here and get it out.
Only show your husband the new you.
The new Tamjakr that is confident and who can be happy without him.
You will be ok.

Tamjakr-I saw this above about starting over at age 46. I am a few years older at 49, and like you, I don't want to start over either. It's a big fear

BUT...there are plenty of great people out there and it will stink for a while but don't let that fear cloud what you are thinking.....

Hi Tamjkar, hopefully you can see from your text reach-out, that it is detrimental to do that just now. Your H is 'turned away' from the M just now. That may or may not always be the case - but for now it is.

Please don't beat yourself up too much about this, but do learn the lesson and avoid doing this again. We all make mistakes when DBing, but the main thing is not to keep making them.

Your time would be best spent focusing on yourself. Can I suggest you have a look at the Codependent No More book? I'm reading it at the moment, and many on this forum have found it helpful.

Now - step away from that phone and no-one gets hurt!! Xx

Step away from the phone!! Love it, that's gonna be my new mantra! I have the book and have read it. My friend is borrowing it. I'm gonna get it back and reread.

I can't claim any credit for that one - I read it in another post a while ago (by Wonks I think). It's good advice though!!

Take care x

Well after texting and speaking to my x last nt and this morning it sounds like he is gone for good. He doesn't want to get back together. He said he will always love me and care about me but that's it. It's horrible but I guess I have to drop the rope and move on. I'm devastated but it's out of my control. These past months have been awful and my days don't seem to be getting any better no matter how hard I try.

I, too, have heard those words. My H has been out of the house for 4 mos. Last night he called to let me know I would be getting D papers today. I'm devastated, not detached. He sounded sad but almost firm in his stance. But, he kept saying its a process, we have x amount of months minimum. Almost like he wants to be firm, but isn't? I don't want to give up.

He says not right now. Who knows what will happen in 5 or 10 yrs. I'm like what?! Forget it!

He says no. I believe him, but he does seem depressed?
