In the beginning

On Monday 6th December my husband of over 28 years declared that he is leaving me for another woman. Apparently I have done nothing wrong and he still loves me but is not 'in love' with me.

His affair started around 18 months ago by 'the other woman' contacting and propositioning him on facebook. Now he is no angel as he should have said no - but why would a woman deliberately set out to break up a marriage that was not in trouble just because hers was on the rocks ? To be fair to my husband he told me after I noted that he seemed to be distant - at least I didn't find out via some other route !

We tried twice to make a go of it but both times she managed to come back into his life again opening up wounds and making him think again of her never really giving us a chance. She claims she is 'thick' but I think she targeted him as she could see what a wonderful man is he and wanted him to replace her broken marriage (by her I hasten to add). I also think she is a manipulating *****.

I still love my husband as he is my soulmate and always has been and also was my best friend. So not only has she stolen my husband, she has stolen my soulmate and my best friend.

This blog will hopefully be therapeutic for me and maybe help others who find themselves in a similar situation xx

Is this what being single is about ?

Oh boy - how tired am I ? I need to go to bed after writing this - its nearly 11:30pm. This weekend has been a good weekend but I haven't slept much due to getting into bed in the early hours of the morning on Sat and Sun and then being woken up by the cat by 8am. I also have eaten very badly and at strange times. Is this what happens when you are forced to be single ?

I was such a 'good' teenager and young adult and never really drank or stayed out - I think I am making up for not doing it in my younger years ! I feel very fortunate to have young friends who are happy to have me tag along with them.

It was mothers day today and my daughters bought me another charm to go on my pandora bracelet that they bought for me for Christmas. It is a very special bracelet to me.

I am still very behind with a number of things including my studying. I am determined not to let that fall by the wayside - I am so close to finishing I want to ensure that I do. I am still having problems with concentrating though and can't seem to settle to anything - that does worry me - I'm so distracted all the time. I frequently will start thinking about my husband, what he said, what I said, things that have happened and so on and it usually happens when I am trying to concentrate on something else.

A couple of people have told me that they are amazed that I have carried on doing various things and seem to be holding it together. I just think I am going through the motions whilst falling apart inside.

One of my friends was telling me about a man she knew who is a photographer and whose wife left him and took him to the cleaners. She then mentioned he was a millionaire. My daughter thinks I should ask her to introduce me to him !!!!! Well its an idea - lol ...
