this time last week I had no idea that my husband was about to turn my life upside down...I can honestly say I have only got through this week as well as I have with the support, advice and messages I have had from mn.
If anyone is lurking and feels they need support about anything please post and ask for help, I have learnt so much about myself and am now a much stronger person because of it, nobody knows in rl what I have been going through but I have functioned ok at work because I knew every break time I could pop back here.
So thank you, thank you and thank you Flowers

What a lovely post. Glad you're feeling stronger. With the fresh post I'm assuming you're making a fresh start. How are things now?

Good to hear from you again rainbow. How are you this morning?

I'm still getting my head around stuff and can honestly say I haven't made any form decisions...do I want to end my marriage?not really but I'm also not willing to live the rest of my life feeling suspicious and on edge..I have a long way to go and he is desperate to make this work and says he will do anything and never give up..
I'm still unsure and will take my time to decide but the main thing is I feel in control which is helping me massively x

he is desperate to make this work and says he will do anything and never give up.

Has he moved out and given you the space to think that you were asking him for? (Have I got the right person?).

loveyoutothemoon · 11/10/2015 11:38

That's fabulous you've got your space and you feel in control. He'll know he can't mess you about without getting away with it. Well done.

I personally, could not get past something like that. It would be a deal breaker.

Rainbowlou1 · 11/10/2015 11:39

Yes he has but we still do see each other to chat and for the kids too x

Deep down and right now while it's stillso raw I'm thinking its possibly a deal breaker too, but I don't want to look back in 5 or 10 years time and think I regret not giving myself time and space to make a proper decision when I feel stronger.
Does that make sense??x

Great post. :)

Do take your time. And if he doesn't respect your need for time and space, that would be a deal breaker for me.

If anything, I'd want to see actions not words or promises.

loveyoutothemoon · 11/10/2015 11:48

Yes take lots of time. A few weeks, months. And see how you feel then.

Rainbowlou1 · 11/10/2015 11:59

Thanks all x

Good to see you post. And it's a great thing to take the time you need to make a decision, not feel rushed into staying or going. Flowers

Glad to hear you are feeling more together Rainbow. So nice to get an update too. Smile
