I am brand new on this site and been doing lots of reading, but could use encouragement.
My situation is that my husband left almost 2 weeks ago.
We have been having problems for over a year. My husband kept telling me that he was unhappy and felt like he has been missing something, but doesn't know what.
I have been ill for a couple of years, having been diagnosed with an auto-immune disorder. I was so wrapped up in my illness I didn't see or maybe didn't care how unhappy he was. I was struggling with what felt to me a death sentence. My husband barely came with me to doctor's appointments and generally didn't seem to care how scared and over-whelmed I was. I really resented that. I started low dose chemo in January and finally decided to go on sick leave from work because I was so sick.
This whole time, every few months we would have a blow out about how unhappy he was and that he wanted to leave. Three days into my sick leave, after being pretty uncaring and completely unresponsive to any attempt by me for affection he again said he wanted to leave. He told me we were not compatible and should have never gotten married and that he felt he settled when he married me. I lost it and told him to leave that day. He did! frown
We have had little contact since then. He wouldn't answer any of my text for days where of course (yes I know very wrong) I begged and pleaded with him to come home. The two times we talked, once he said there was still love, but love is not enough and the other that there is no us and never will be again. When I did see him, he hugged me and held me and kissed me, but again said that the love had not gone, but was not enough.
He is renting a room for the next two months and then wants to get an apartment. Most of his stuff is still here. I packed it into the garage. His animals (guinea pigs) are still here although he said he had found someone to take them temporarily. I have stopped texting him, he has text me twice. Once to give me his new number and to tell me to contact our insurance agent. We have no children together and have only been married for 3 1/2 years. What do I do?
I'm sorry for this long post and still trying to figure out all he lingo.
