My H of 20 years has messed me around for months and we've finally now split.
The bit I hate the most (and there are lots!) are not being able to see my DC every day now, we struggled to have them, and now I have forced to become a part time parent and I'm supposed to just accept it.
H moved out months ago (albeit it was supposed to be temporary) and still after this time I can't cope with it. I hate that I don't see them every morning and get to say a proper goodnight before bed, I hate not being involved in every aspect of their life and having to talk to them via FaceTime.
I make sure I have things to do when I'm on my own as I feel so lonely and the house just seems empty.
I have a weeks holiday booked with them which H is fine about but if he were to want to do the same I would be in bits at not seeing them for so long.
I didn't have kids to become a part time parent (we struggled to have them, lost several babies and were told we would be very lucky if we did) and now he thinks I should just accept all of this.
Any tips on how to accept the new norm and how to not feel I'm just losing so much when I just feel like I've lost everything that was important to me: my marriage/best friend/husband who I thought I'd grow old with and now my DC too.
