Hello
My husband always told me I was his reason for living. He was so affectionate and caring, so lovely. We had a wonderful life, children great home, happiness. I really thought he loved me - he told me often enough. I adore him. But out of the blue he now no longer feels anything for me, he has moved out and wants a new life without me in it. Our children (grown up but living at home) are as devastated and bewildered as me. He has turned into a complete stranger. He comes back for a couple of hours each day to sort out the house so it can be sold but every time I see him it's like a stab through the heart. I feel I have been completed betrayed and am so utterly disappointed that he has turned on me like this. He was my best friend and I devoted my whole life - 25 years to him. And now he can't even be bothered to read my texts! He has moved on and is clearly perfectly content with what he has done as he's posting messages on facebook and photos on instagram as if nothing has changed for him. I feel completely alone. I am dreading meeting anyone I know because I will just cry in front of them. Everytime I see happy couples it is like an icepick in me as that was how we were (or so I thought) a short while ago. He is adamant that it is over and in his words, it took him some time but 'the penny finally dropped' and he realised he no longer loves me. He won't say why. I haven't done anything to upset him and I am still the woman I always was (but older). I am in my 50s now. I am in tatters. I can't even end it though because of my children but I don't know how I can go on. It is absolute hell and I never thought I would be in this position, discarded after all these years. I don't know why I'm writing this really. He's doesn't want me any more so there's nothing else to say is there. I just feel devastated.
