My wife and I (married less than a year together for 5 with a two year old son) have recently started a separation process. I was not the best husband. She has valued reasons to be where she is. Binge drinking was an issue although no physical abuse or cheating. But I did drunk call women...

I stayed single and independent for the longest time.. I married older and I thought I was marrying the right guy. I did not say perfect, he's human after all. I dated this guy when we were in our 20's and too young to get married. He went on with his life, got married, no children, divorced...

Two weeks ago, my (M37) wife (F33) of more than seven years asked me for a separation. Although it came somewhat out of the blue, it was preceded by about seven weeks of terrible communication, tensions related to her work, her being physically and emotionally absent from the home and household...

I never thought that I would be going through a separation with the love of my life. I married the person I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life with. I never saw this coming but I had a feeling it was... not because it was a toxic relationship or anything in that nature but because...

Long story shorter than detailed version. I met my husband the night that my best friend had her 21st bday party now almost 13 years ago. My husband now was a friend of her friend, I had just left the hospital from being with my Dad for a week after taking him in while having a stroke. I was...

I finally left my drunk ex last December 21. On that day he had been drunk for 8 days straight and fell down the stairs. I called an ambulance because he was bleeding profusely. The first responders were police officer who arrested me because, in his drunk state, he said I pushed him down the...

Looking for some advice on separation/divorce. I have been married for 17 years, and we have three boys, 11, 13 and 14. Kids adore their dad, and he is an excellent father. He has been involved in all their activities, and coaches whatever sport they play – soccer, hockey, baseball. Takes them...

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...

{Note: Canusa57 says that he accidently deleted his post. I rebuilt it from the quotes of is post in replies in this thread. ~ EleGirl} In 2000, 6 years after we got married, I immigrated to Canada. My wife did not want to move there That unfortunately was not the last time she accused me of...

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...

Hello, I apologize if this is long, it has been a while since I posted.

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...
