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

My confidence has gone

I was reflecting today on how I have changed since the beginning of January. My confidence has gone, I seem incapable of doing anything, my mind is permanently fuddled, I struggle to focus on one thing at a time, emotionally I am a wreck. Things that I would have just done seem to now be hard to do - or I can't be bothered. I'm not eating properly - either I don't eat or I eat rubbish. I live from day to day and struggle to plan anything in advance. I wonder how long it will take to regain any of my former self back again ? From talking with others who have been through breakups like this - it seems that it will be years....... the only good things at the moment are that I have two wonderful daughters, wonderful friends and a job that helps to take my mind off things.
