He gets to ride off into the sunset and be happy and I'm left to clean up the mess and cope alone?
Years of him cheating, pathological lying, verbal abuse, distancing and emotional coldness and of course it was all my fault. Then to put the final nail in the humiliation coffin he gets some young girl pregnant and it was while we were still married. Everyone knew he was seeing her but me.
I left my country (New Zealand) to marry what I thought was a wonderful man. I suspect he has badmouthed me to his family and OUR friends, all of whom I have never heard from since I kicked him out after discovering yet another D-day. What gets me down is I'm isolated and alone. I have a few good friends but they are both married and I don't see them a lot.
I am raising our special needs child pretty much all by myself with no support, no breaks, no help from anyone, and not much help from my ex husband since he's too busy chasing "a woman who will make him happy".
It hurts to be not only tossed aside by my husband of 13 yrs but also treated like I'm dead from his family and our mutual friends. I worry all the time how I'm going to cope if I get sick or some disaster hits me. I'm angry he gets to dump his family and ride off into the sunset and find happiness (or so he claims). When do you stop being angry and bitter?
I've been told to get out and date, go out and socialize. Socialize with whom? All of the friends I had all those years are gone I assume thanks to him. Date? Who will look after my autistic child? I work 45 hrs a week, study part time and care of our son in what's left of my week.
I've made a good life for myself since I booted him to the street, my career is on the upswing big time, I went back to school and our child is doing ok. Most days I cope just fine. Today he called me and unleashed a volley of hurtful things on me - I told him don't ever contact me again and all custody swaps can be made at a day care center. What a pr%*k.
