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

Decree Nici ?

I received a call from my husband telling me he had received a letter from the court saying that the hearing for the divorce will be on 14th Feb ....... I need to contact my solicitor as I haven't heard anything yet ! Im assuming this is for the decree nici. What a day for that to be on ! Valentines day will mean something different to me in the future. I'm still concerned about how this is going to end up , even though my husband is being very reasonable about what he says he wants my solicitor says the court could order something else if they consider it unfair. I'm very nervous and won't be able to relax until the decree absolute comes through. I have a feeling that my husband will get re married to the manipulating ***** probably because she wants it. She's not stupid as she knows it will give her protection.

On the positive side I have now lost nearly 3.5 stone in weight and am loving the nice comments I am getting from people and the fact I can now wear smaller clothes. I'm going to try and lose another 2.5 to 3 stone.

Also just passed another OU module so now on the home run for completing my degree. Two assignments and an end of course assessment to go - no exam thankfully :-)

I'm currently enjoying the theatre group as the individuals that realty make it not very nice are not doing the two shows I am in. I'm with some lovely folk :-)

Work is very busy but I seem to be being appreciated and enjoying the programmes I am leading. I feel more engaged again and have more of the old me back.

I also decided I wanted to do something of value that I can use my Psychology knowledge and give me an opportunity to meet new people. I've applied for a lay advisor role (voluntary) on a strategy board and have an interview next week. So we'll see....

I'm looking forward to my photography weekend in March. A bit worried that the jet lag I will have from being in the US on business the week leading up to it will be a problem especially as I will be having to get up at around 5:30 in the mornings !

No idea what I will do for holiday this year. I belong to Groupon and wowcher and all these great holiday baks are coming up but they are always for two people. Everything is aimed at couples - singles always lose out and that sucks.
