Love help: I was 4 weeks away from the birth of our 2nd son when my husband of 8 years told me he didn’t love me anymore and he had someone else. - Help.com

I was 4 weeks away from the birth of our 2nd son when my husband of 8 years told me he didn’t love me anymore and he had someone else.

I was living 1600 miles away from any family. The day I came home from the hospital he had moved his stuff out. I ended up moving to be with family and feel sad, confused, lost. I have a 2 year old and a newborn. My husband doesn’t answer my calls and if I do talk to him he is mean. Couldn’t I be the one angry??

wow, The best thing you can do is forgive him. Nothing will make this easy. It is hard and It will be hard, it is life. Crapy things happen to good people. Im sorry to hear what has happened to you. Be thankfull that you have family to go to. But you need to forgive him, even though it is the opposite of what you probably feel needs to be done.even If he doesnt ask for it.

wow. How horrible.

I would say that the best thing is to just move on and forget him. However, he is a father and you two share a bond for quite a while now. That makes it hard. And he doesn’t know what he is missing by leaving his family.

My advice would be to try, for the sake of your children, to heal as quickly as possible….I know….that’s almost like asking the impossible, especially with all the hormonal things going on in your body right now.

Get into counseling; find strength within yourself; make some new friends; and love your children with all the love in your heart that you would show to them AND him.

One day, you will realize that life is “livable” again. It will take time; but it will happen.

is there any reason FOR him to be angry? it sounds like he KNOWS that he did you wrong and by instead being sorry and giving into you and your children’s needs, he is acting angry and throwing a bit of a tantrum instead of coming to terms with the person that he has become. did he explain why, other than he found someone else? thats very random… im sorry to hear this.

he’s angry because I wouldn’t give him space. I was 4 weeks away from having a baby with no family around and I was suppose to give him space!! He said I was controling and he never lived the life he wanted. He’s now with a girl that has 3 kids of her own.
