Relationship Out Of Nowhere I'm So Confused.

I Googled and a link popped up from this site where I swear what a woman wrote I felt like I wrote it myself.

Some background my husband is AD and has been since October of 2007. We were married just a few days before he left. The first 2 years 7 months of our marriage we saw each other 70 days. When he finally made it to a base I could go to I became instantly pregnant. We recently found out we are pregnant again.

He had something's happen he has never fully discussed when he was overseas. He literally just told me he thinks he has PTSD. We are stationed overseas and he is getting out of the military soon and going home.

Anyway he is working nights and one night I woke up in the morning hours and found him talking to a girl on Skype. He said "I wasn't going to tell you till you went state-side but I want a divorce" I have no idea where this has come from. He swears it not the girl and when I asked what I've done he says it not my fault I've done everything in the world for him he just doesn't love me any more. Honestly I don't know where this is coming from we were literally sitting on the couch cuddling watching TV one day he was telling me this the next.

We hadn't been having sex often between him on nights and us having a 2 year old and both of us being depressed it was down to 1 time a week. Well now he wants sex with no strings attached he doesn't want me to think it means anything. Of course I'm at the point of doing anything to maybe possible make him change his mind. We ended up having sex 4 times in just a few hours. Sometimes he wanted just for me and him not to well you know. This confuses me so bad. He is still distance and keeps reminding me this means nothing and he still doesn't want to work things out. He also has been spending time with me and our daughter together and things seem fine.

Ugh I'm so lost I asked for him to do counselling he refuses saying nothing is going to make him change his mind. He is fine as long as I don't say anything about trying to work things out or that I love him.

I read this and I wanted to throw up.

PTSD is no excuse for this type of irresponsible behavior and short sighted immature relationship.

Put on your parachute and jump far away from this person.
 
Oh gosh that's terrible! regardless of his PTSD - you don't deserve to be treated like this, you have emotions and feelings that need to be considered as well.

Can only imagine how you must be feeling after sex with him, awful - sex should be mutually loving and caring act... not a demand with "no strings"..

p.s - mad max - love your quote "working on my bod maybe my mind will follow" - beautiful!
