So sorry. That's so hurtful. I understand. My husband is leaving me too. We've been together for seven. Unlike you, though, we were pretty miserable the whole time, so it's very much a relief. But, it still hurts. The thought, oh, I'm not good enough? He wants something or someone else? That floors me, but then I realize that doesn't mean I'm bad or unworthy. He just prefers someone or something different. And I do too. So, it's okay. I'm really sorry though that you were blindsided like that. I was in a way too, but deep down, I knew we were headed there. Please message me if you ever need to chat. :)
Thank you. We were best friends and still talk regularly. He just wasn’t in love anymore and didn’t believe in counseling. I’m just a friend to him but we have the exact same interests and a beautiful family and house that we built. It doesn’t make sense. He just felt he wasn’t excited to see me or hug me at end of day but enjoys my company.
So sorry you’re going through the hardships. If you both know you’re better off, then that’s a positive, but it’s still a loss.
