Replies to 'Divorce Support'

 I think many men, and women too, feel that time is running out. They feel that there are stones unturned and they have regrets. I think this is the cause of so many "mid-life" crises. Even the most loving, responsible people can fall prey to this.  As long as the spouse is not hunting for a new mate, try to be understanding and supportive.  You may even have a few adventures together again.

Don't know if I'm doing this correctly but I am in the same situation you are in.  I was married for 27 plus years when my husband told me he was moving out.  I truely wasn't expecting it.  He's been gone for six months.  When he left he said he didn't want a divorce he was just moving out.  We have a business together.  We needed to leave things as they were,  I have multiple sclerosis and needed to keep our medical as it was.  It seems that when he turned fifty years old he just changed.  bought a brand new Harley Davidson motorcycle, bought some hair all this without even telling me.  These were major purchases and I didn't know till after the fact.  Now he's gone and I'm basically by myself.  I'm stuck in a wheelchair and  can't drive myself around.  At times I just hate him for leaving me like this.  It's so hard I guess those vows he made when we married didn't  really mean a thing. Never wanted to talk to a counselor with me he just wanted me to go by myself.  When my counselor asked me to invite hhim to a meeting. He came and told me he waas leaving.  he had made his decision and that was it.
