Any tips on how to heal from heartbreak? Unwanted divorce on horizon.
Hi, I have been on here before telling tales of woe about my long marriage to a serial adulterer. He just told me he wants an open marriage With the mistress as a very visible partner or a divorce. My choice as he put it. I didn’t choose to be with a serial adulter with a long-term mistress and I didn’t choose to marry a men who I would eventually divorce. So I have told him an open marriage is out of the question, because I don’t want it, and the hurt and humiliation is too much for me to bear. So my option is divorce and I have said this is the only option available and he agrees. Even though he’s a bastard, after nearly 30 years of marriage I feel heartbroken! And I’m frightened! I’ve never been alone before but that’s what staring me in the face as he walks into the sunset with his much younger woman ( 20 years younger). I feel angry, jealous, bitter, betrayed, desperately sad, lonely and most of all heartbroken. I feel a failure in all sorts of ways. Logically I know I’m not, but I can’t help these feelings. Have you any advice, tips, for getting me through The tough times to come. Thanks for your support and handholding.
