my husband and I have been married for about four years this December. He’s a vet and has PTSD and is not on medication. About three weeks ago I came home from the movies, Thank you for your service, to him telling me he wants a divorce. He loves me but isn’t in love with me. I was devastated I begged him not to say that and we could work on the marriage. He said that if I wanted to make it work I would have years ago....and I said yes but sometimes it takes a kick in the ass to wake you up. He said he’s tired of the fighting and arguing and wants to be alone. He’s tired of the constant nagging. i signed up for therapy but he said he wasn’t interested in going. He says things to me on the fly and at the worst times. I had a hysterectomy last Wednesday and when i was discharged Thursday, that night he said he wanted to move back to Texas. Why chose these times??? I listen to my therapist and continue to tell him I love him daily. He says it back but it’s seems to be with irritation. We still sleep in the same bed, he kisses me good bye in the morning but it’s the little things i miss. I am scared to death he’s going to up and leave or serve me with divorce papers. I refuse to give up on him and us. I just don’t believe him when he says these things. I have given him respect, space and backed off. I have been far from perfect and my therapist diagnosed me with PTSD from my previous relationships.
Any advice or insight to what he is thinking?? Why is he still in my bed but saying something else. My therapist says watch his actions not his words.
Tonight he got together with friends and normally I would freak out but I gave him space. He’s in a good mood. We chatted like normal. I’m scared to death of him leaving. Advice please!!! This really hurts and is frustrating!!!!
