Marraige breakdown

Hi all, I hope your well? This is my first time posting but often read posts. I just wondered if anyone had a similar experience as I have no one to talk to. Last night I told my husband I wasn't happy and wanted the marriage to end. I have been thinking this for quite a long time now but in reality things seem different to what's in your head. I saw his heartbreak in front of me and I cant get it out of my head. I have been horrible to him for a long time and I can't help myself he is such a lovely man, he is in the army so not home often. He is my biggest supporter and is so kind in every way. Of course we have had arguments and he hasn't been perfect in the past and it usually involves alcohol but it's very far and few. I feel I have made the biggest mistake and he drove back to camp last night and hasn't been in contact since he left. I have tried calling but no answer but I think I have blown it now or is this a normal feeling after breaking up with someone as you feel guilty?
Thank you for reading x

Of course you feel guilt and regret. It is sad, no getting away from it. However, I'm sure you've thought long and hard about it and decided the marriage couldn't be repaired. Leave him be. He needs time to process all this. You'll obviously need to talk again at some point, to discuss financial matters etc. Give him time.

If you have been so unkind to him, it’s good you’ve let him go, and you might be extending him a second favour by staying away from him.
