Really shit year. Separated over a year from husband. He has been so emotional abusive all year and is on his second girlfriend. Yet i know I would have so much guilt even at the thought of meeting someone else as I feel because we are still officially married and it wld still feel like cheating.. I have becomes friendly with a man I work with and he has asked me out but I can't stop myself from feeling guilty so just made an excuse and declined. However I'm sitting here on a Saturday nite feeling so lonely and sad and regret not accepting invite...I have 2 kids and he has said he will not mind kids overnight so I can go out or have any sort of a life Just another controlling tactic.. but am so fed up of it all..,has anyone felt the same? Tia

Oh I would 100 per cent ring the man back and go out on a date! Life's too short!

So DH has dumped you and you're sitting indoors alone on a Saturday night, worried that you'd be cheating if you go out with someone else? Do you know how long it'll take to get a divorce? You could be waiting 6 months, 2 years, 5 years... And ExH will be enjoying himself!

No no no no no! Get that date arranged and go enjoy yourself!

Can no-one else mind the kids? Ex sounds like a right prick.

Fit the date in whenever you can. Even just a coffee. What age are DC's?
