Our life hasnt been easy but we were in it together all the way and I thought,our love was stronger because of these times. The language difference made it hard for me at the beginning ( as it now will for the OW ) and my husbands family made things hard for us.We had lots of difficulties along the way but we stuck together and there was never any question of giving up. After our daughters were born we settled into a " normal" family life and now they are married with their own babies.
I thought we were so average we would be together till the end. I did not see any reason to leave over the years in spite of the difficulties we had.
Now it seems he has someone new and more exciting although she is 11 years older than himself.He says she is kind and nice and peaceful and more interesting to talk to and generally fun to be with. I realise that AT THE MOMENT this is true,as all partnerships are like that when new,however,she will be very dependant on him as I was at the beginning ,for company and language help and in their case there will be no children to bind them together and make a focus point. He is just repeating what he did 42 years ago when we met.
