Hoper1's story..

[BeingMe]

Welcome to the sane side of MLC ... those trying to decipher our spouses weirdness. Depression is really a part of MLC.

We've all been through varying degrees of craziness, and varying lengths of time. I've been here for 7 years? I think. Time becomes such a strange thing when you GAL. I've been at uni for most of this time, and every now and then, I look at my "marriage" and wonder why I'm still here, married to H. I think it's because he's not a mean MLCer, just depressed, distant, cheating (but not in my face), doesn't love me, but cares. I think sometimes that maybe I would've gotten over all this quicker if he had been mean and angry.

Anyway, that's my story, in a nutshell. Most are similar. My advice is get your financial life sorted out for the sake of protection, and get yourself a life separate to his ... hobbies, further studies, gym, just getting out to a movie every now and then is good ... always, of course, taking into consideration your S6.

Take care.
