I've asked my W why she never just said, "I'm really unhappy." BD
I asked my H the same thing why he just never came to me before to say the same thing. I would have listened if he would have told me that he was at the point where he could care less whether he lived or died. He told others this but never said a word to me about it. I wish that he would have said something even before the OW came into the picture to tell me that he is ready to skip out if things don't change between us.
OTOH, I was unhappy too before all this happened and I didn't say anything either but I seriously thought that he would not listen or he would not want to make things better. Many years ago I tried to explain that I was unhappy about some things but he didn't care.
Me: 41 H: 39 D: 6 S: 4 M-14 T-16 first bomb: 5-12-07 (M dead doesn't really want to work things out.) second bomb: 6-4-2007 (found note he wrote about wanting desperately to be with OW and would have to give up everything) Kelley
