Marriage

[Rpan]

For some time I’ve been struggling with my marriage. I’ve written about it in the past. Its so hard to face the pain losing something that gave me our daughter. I know it’s time to move on, past all the hurt and blame, but it’s so hard to face such a loss. I’m venting because I know that the support that comes here is important to hear.

I'm in the same boat as you my friend. Just broke up with my girlfriend of 15 years. We have a son together also. I'm right in the middle of trying to buy a house. I am very afraid of being alone again. But this has also been a long time coming. Here if you need! Stay strong!

Thanks buddy, we’ve been together for 20 plus years. I get the being afraid of being alone. I dread having to get an apartment. Sucks

I am going to hate telling my son I am going somewhere else to sleep when I get a new house

Ya I get it. For our kids it’s for the best. Staying in relationships that don’t work aren’t helpful for them. So somehow we have to know it’s for the best. I have to just keep you thoughts on my child and our family to heal through this time. I’m just so angry. I feel blamed and often made to feel like I’m the problem. Someone said to me to try to view this as a new beginning, I’ve been feeling like I’m a failure and that I’m the issue. Our relationship survived on me always apologizing for being me. It just hurts.

Rpan, we get the best support in hearing from those of us who have gone through the same heartaches. Toddt feels your pain. One day at a time.
