Hi New to this board. Still have yet to learn the many many abbreviations. My divorce is only two months away and I feel like I am running out of time. My family and my husband's family is sick of me talking/asking for advise and tell me give up so I hope the helpful and knowledgeable people here can give the advice I seek and moral support to not give in. This is my situation. We met at work and start dating while we worked together. He was in his late 20's, me in my early 30's. We secretly dated for many years due to the fact we could not be in a relationship in our workplace. I get along with his family and extended family quite well and I am the only woman that he's ever "brought home". We started living together shortly after we started dating and had been together for 7 years. After he got a new job and left our workplace, he proposed to me after a year. We had never discussed marriage in earnest and when he proposed it was the sweetest surprise. Married for 8 years and last Christmas I discovered he was secretly meeting a coworker when he told me he was go to a friend's. I confronted him and within 2 days he pack a couple of things and said he needed some time, left to stay at a motel and never came back. When I asked him to come home a week later, he told me he had rented a place. That was 10 months ago. I have been doing the pursuing since which I known wrong, but he has made no attempts to contact me. He has finally started to respond to me text in short sentences within the last month only because I end the text with a question. We've never really fought in our 15 years together and his avoids conflict. I don't know how long the emotional affair was before I found out. He is now openly seeing the OW and displays not guilt or remorse.
