My husband has left: it was mutual in terms of I was unhappy too.
I am in shock. We were together 10 years. I have kids. I thought perhaps he would come back one day and we'd struggle on. But now he had a new GF and is speaking as if it's properly over. Which is fine, but I am scared.
I am unemployed after several years at home with kids. It's scary going back to work. I don't want to claim benefits (pride, embarrassment etc). But I haven't been as pro active about getting a job as I have been. I've become disheartens abou a few rejected applications.
I guess I feel lonely and need to talk to people who perhaps have had husbands leave and miss them even though they know the relationship is over. How do I draw a line under the relationship? How do I change my mindset so that I'm not feeling this is just some temporary blip? We weren't legally married so thankfully no paperwork.
No family by the way. Good friends, yes.
I'm just speaking off the top of my head. Anyway school run...
