I am hart broken and don’t know what to do with myself. My husband of 17 years just walk out on me without any explaination, took our 10 year son with him, filed for divorce. I was served papers 2 months ago, was totaly shocked! Now I am in court every other week fighting, to get my son back.Yes, we had our fights and stuff. Now he is seeing his brother’s wifes daughter, his step niece, who is 29 with 3 kids. I am 44 and my husband is 41. And we are not even divorced yet. He made sure that all my friends hate me and nobody is talking to me at all. I have no family here at all. My family is 9000 miles away and I have not seen them in 20 years.So, I have no emotional support of any kind except my beautiful australian shepherd dog is now my best friend. What am I suppose to do with my life?

My husband and I are trying to stay together, there’s been no cheating and there’s still love, and we have a 9 month old baby. We’ve just been arguing so much and I don’t know how we’ll get along in the future. We’ve been to counseling and are going to go back. I read all the horror stories of failed marriages on here, but I’m wondering if anyone has a story of a saved marriage; I need some inspiration!
it’s naive to think trying counseling with a different counselor is a waste of money when there is a baby involved. and we’re aware a marriage takes work, kinda obvious from my question we’re working at it.

Without saying move on, find someone else, go to gym! I can’t even breath or make myself get out of the bed. I can’t function like a normal person…Please any advice…
It is not at first! It’s been 5 months now and sometimes its getting better, sometimes I can’t do anything. I’ve lost 40lbs and now I am finally back to my friends and family. I changed 4 jobs in last 6 weeks, and I am just such a mess…

I really have a situation here. I have never cheated on my husband and he has never cheated on me. But we have been separated for almost 2 months now. We have been married almost 10 years. But somehow over the years we just took each other for granted. Apparently he was feeling neglected and I was too. He was the one who left and now he want even talk to me. He says he hates me and he wants a divorce. We both were married previously. I have no children from my marriage, but he has 2 boys. The oldest one is of age and has baby #3 on the way. He will not work and he only talks to his dad if he wants something. Son #2 is not biologically his child. His first wife had an affair and now they have a son from it. I wanted to adopt, we couldn’t have children. My husband didn’t. So this bothered me alot. He says I hate his kids, but I don’t. I don’t like the way they use him. What do I do, to show him I love him & need him? That our marriage will work if we both try. Help?
