separation

Hello, so I’ve never written on one of these and frankly, don’t know where to start. I’m a married woman of 5 years and it’s felt like a life time. I’m truly in such an unhappy marriage I can’t see us ever mending the hurt that has transpired over the past 5 years. We have two small children...

Hello everyone, I am new to this message board, and I’m reaching out for some advice. I have been married for 12 years and have two girls (9 and 7). My husband and I have had trouble throughout our marriage including: financial trouble (in which I was blamed for spending too much money), not...

I’m looking for outside advice or at least some opinions on my current situation with my husband. We met 7 months ago on a dating app, we moved in together at about 2 months, got engaged at 3 months and then, due to a clause in his parenting agreement with his ex wife (and also what I thought...

It's been a few years since I've posted. in 2014/2015 we had gone thru a separation and she quickly got back together with her affair partner from 2012 - though there's an obvious question as to whether or not the affair ended. At the end of 2015 we start talking again and reconciled ...

Hey, everyone. So I've been married to my husband for almost 9.5 years. When we met/got married, I was a slim 130 lbs, wearing a 2-4 in pants and fairly responsible. A lot has changed since then. To begin with, once we moved from Texas, where I had lived since birth, I put on a lot of weight-...

I am struggling deeply and just need some sound advice. I've had a very rough year. I was struggling with care-taking for a very very sick immediate family member and went through a rough surgery for myself. My mental health suffered during this time- I began to struggle with crippling anxiety...

I’ve been to therapy for a few months since learning from my children that my husband had been in an ongoing affair- they were 3 and 5. I was absolutely devastated and the first thing that my husband said was that it was both of our faults and that I need to own my part. I did so much for him...

I'm a newly-wed. My husband and I got married less than a year after meeting without really knowing much about each other. It was a marriage set up by our parents to which we both wholly agreed to. I did and at least, that what my husband tells me. We're both in our 20s. We've now been married...

I thought I will share this with you guys. Seven Ways To Leave A Cheater By Tracy Schorn Leaving a cheater is an intimidating process. It’s not like you want to blurt out to everyone in your life, “Hey, Bob won’t quit cheating on me. Do you know a good divorce attorney?” And anyone...

I'm sitting here getting wine-drunk dreading tomorrow. I have to tell my husband I don't love him anymore. We got married pretty quickly, like a few months into knowing each other. I know, I'm stupid. He was a stand-up guy when we got together. Optimistic, had huge goals he was working on, had...

Been married for 10 years together for 13. We have a wildly successful but stressful lifestyle. My wife has been wanting a simpler life for a few years now and we were on the verge of creating that. She had a fling with a female somm at a wine tasting event and then the story gets weird. She...

I'm living a lie. It looks like I'm living an amazing life. But behind closed doors things are much different. I cannot tolerate my husband. I feel like I'm struggling every day. Being a mom is hard work. But I feel like it's even harder when you have a husband like mine. A husband that has...

I've been reading many posts on TAM, but wanted to start my own to get advice and encouragement. Here's my story. Been together 13 years, married 10, and have three children. About 5 years ago I was traveling a lot overseas in impoverished, third-world countries for work, often gone for 2-3...

Hi Forum, It's been a few months since I've posted. Things were going well, until they weren't. Serial infidelity and/or serial thoughts about infidelity have driven my husband and I farther apart. This time, I've asked for a formal separation with no contact, which my husband has agreed to. He...
