Dixie D....I feel we are kindred spirits and our men are cut from the same cloth. I too am not hopeful about a future with my husband. I just really want him to talk to me. The part for me that hurts so much is that he completely cut me off....no email, text, call....nothing. I just don't get...
I am still trying to understand the reasons why my husband, of almost 17 years, came home on leave from Afghanistan and left me. It happened over 5 weeks ago, but it has been 3 weeks since I tried to contact him. I read the forums almost everyday. Somehow I find comfort knowing there are others...
Dixie D I can relate to your situation in so many ways. My husband came home on mid tour leave on Aug 25, packed his stuff, said he was filing for divorce, and left. It was like he was someone else. I was served divorce papers the day he returned to Afghanistan. I never saw any of this coming. I...
I guess by now nothing should surprise me. I discovered yesterday that he did change the direct deposit. He didn't even give me enough to pay bills. I ended up applying for food stamps. I feel like he is trying to get me back for all the things I did wrong to him in our marriage. It hurts that...
Thanks. I do agree that there is probably another woman. However, before he deployed in April he and I did everything together. There was no evidence of him cheating. When he got to Afghanistan we talked almost every day. It wasn't until the first part of August that I really started to see a...
I really thought that I was starting to do better, but yesterday he talked to our daughter and it has been downhill from there. It was a short conversation. Basically him asking if she and I are fighting and if I have been pushing her. He did say he was sorry and wished it didn't happen. At...
It's been a month since my husband blindsided me with divorce papers. Every day I try to be stronger than the day before. He still has made no attempt to contact me except for sending me a Facebook friend request, which I have ignored. Today is his 40th birthday. I can't help but wonder if he...
I wish I could ask him why he sent me a friend request. He refuses to have any communication with me. He sees me online and doesn't try to talk to me. He hasn't emailed. Nothing. Even if I were to add him as a friend again, I deleted him right after he left, I don't think he would talk to me. He...
Thanks. His family hasn't really contacted our daughter. The entire situation is bizarre, senseless, and completely aggravating. I see him online and he doesn't try to talk to me. It seems that he stays logged in. Before he would only login to talk to me and then logout. He did send me a...
I woke up today feeling sad. I have tried to stay positive the past few days, but today I really miss him. He still has made no attempt to contact me or our daughter. However, he sent me a friend request on Facebook. I do not plan on responding to it because I just don't see the point. I almost...
Renee...I totally understand how you feel. My husband's family has cut me off as well. I wasn't surprised when it happened because I never felt like I fit in or that my husband stuck up for me with them. I have not talked to my husband in a month. He wants nothing to do with me. I am hurt that...
Court...I am in the very same situation. The only difference is my husband came home on mid tour and announced he wanted a divorce. I was served with divorce papers the day after he left to go back. He also posted on his Facebook how much fun he had with our daughter and his parents and took...
I know that it is going to take me a long time to heal from this. I do feel that I am grieving the death of the man I love. I am not sure he will ever get the help that he needs to work thru his anger. I hope he does for our daughter's sake. She has not really come to terms with what is...
My daughter and I are both going to counseling. I know that I have a lot to work out. I just want the intense anger that I feel to go away. I wake up every day with a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. I think what I am most bothered by right now is knowing his chain of command knows he has...
I am sure that his parents have no idea that he has talked about suicide. Unfortunately he has told them not to talk to me. Basically I have been completely cut off from him and his parents. It is so hard for me to understand how all of a sudden he hates me. I have contested the divorce and am...
This is my first post here. I have been doing a lot of reading the past few weeks and have read so many posts that I can relate to. This morning I have so much inside and I feel that this is the only place I can go where people will truly understand.
My husband is active duty army on currently...
