I have been with this guy for eight years. We have our daughters and I thought everything was going okay.
I mean things weren't ideal he is a carer for his mum who has MS and he works nights, we didn't live together (MIL didn't approve of me and he didn't want to leave her and feel guilty if anything happened), but we saw each other quite a bit, although I would have liked him to move in with me, he never would, we spoke about it but he always seemed to change the subject.
Like I said I thought everything was okay, I had a few little doubts in the back of my mind but I just assumed this was me over-analysing. I mean lately we hadn't been seeing each other as much because we had both been doing a lot of overtime at work over xmas.
He took his mum up north to see her sister on Saturday and came back alone on Sunday and everything was different. He was distant, wasn't interested in me and basically just ignored me until he went back to his on Monday. Then out of the blue he calls me yesterday and says he's leaving me. We want different things apparently (he wouldn't explain what different things) he's really sorry and still cares about me and is thankful that he met me because we have amazing DD's. I just don't get it.
Stranger still, I felt awful yesterday I was a mess, walking to get DD's after school visibly upset, it wasn't nice. Today I feel fine though, eerily calm and okay with everything I even spoke to him to make arrangements as far as the DD's seeing him and everything, and felt... Okay...
Is there something wrong with me?
