Hi. I am new here but have been reading others posts for a while. It really helps to see that others are going through the same things. A little of my story. My husband of 17 years left in October 2013. He just got out of bed one night and left. Said he needed time, but still has not come back. We have 3 sons 16, 12,and 9. Back story....HE was is Afghanistan for 10months (his 4th tour) and returned in May 2013. His grandmother died while he was over there and his stepfather died in August after he returned. Mother in law came to live with us in September. He left in October and she remained with me until she moved back to California in November 2013. He now says he wants to end marriage and move to California. He does not love me anymore and admits he has been talking to someone in California since he was deployed. I am a little shell-shocked. I am trying to do DB, but feel really desperate and scared that my life and family are falling apart. I have started GAL and am talking to a coach. It just seems that nothing I do makes a difference. Feeling like giving up....
