Re: my husband does not want to be married to me any longer

My husband had a spinal cord injury in 2004. I was by his side at the hospital, rehab at Craig Hospital, and have been by his side ever since. When we met I was just 2 yrs out of my first marriage. There was a substantial age difference, but we fell in love. He adored me and treated me like it. Was everything #1 was not. Life was beautiful. Full of laughter, sex, love, hopes and dreams. We were together 6 years when injury occurred. Downhill since. I am a nurse and understand the anger, bitterness, life adjustments, lost hopes and dreams...but I had prayed the aggression that would develop would not fall to me. It has. Worse yet, he discovered Cialis 2 yrs ago. His constant focus on sex and other women, translating into disrespect for me, had become unbearabe, as did the rages, verbal abuse and general disdain. He did say he lost interest in the marriage years ago. As a result of the injury, he received a very large settlement and the money has produced alot of this behavior. He began living for the moment, without me, unfortunately. Lavish trips for him "and the guys". I did reach a breaking point June 18 and divorce is in process. No children with him.
