I posted a while back under a different user name. General jist was dh of over 20 years has announced out of nowhere (no fights etc and get along fine) that he no longer wants to be with me. He swears no OW and doesn't know why feelings changed.
We've given it a few extra months but all came to a head again yesterday and he still wants out. In fact I'm inclined to think he only suggested working at it to make it not look so out of blue to everyone else as he seems keen to run the story that "things haven't been right for a while" despite fact that until he dropped the bomb everything was fine and emotions only been running high since his revelation
So now I'm facing being a single parent to 3 kids under 7 whilst he swans off into a new life. I'm beside myself but trying to hold it together for the kids.
He's going to find somewhere to live asap but we still need to tell the kids. Their world will be shattered as this is just so unexpected (nobody will believe this we have been such a strong couple upto now). Do we tell them now or at the point that he's found somewhere and is able to actually leave?
I can't believe that this is happening and am still in a state of shock
