I would normally not air my dirty laundry but at this point I am so devastated that I just need some support. I am sitting alone in my home for the first time in 17 years and have just gone numb. Here’s my story…My dad died 3 weeks ago. He and I were very, very close. I am a daddy’s girl. It was sudden and very unexpected. I spent 3 days in the hospital with him and then the next 3 days helping my mom get affairs in order. The 3rd day after my dad died I was so happy to get home and unwind. I sat down in my recliner, kicked my feet up, and let out a sigh. My husband was sitting in his chair next to me. He turned to me and said “I’m no longer happy with you or our marriage” I was in shock. We had been together for 17 years and had what I thought was the perfect marriage. We never argued, we did everything together. He was my best friend. I didn’t know what to do. After some talking we decided we would try to figure it out. I thought surely we would be able to work this out. Then Saturday while I was at work I received a text message from him say “I’ve moved out, you’re on your own”. A text message after 17 years, I get a text message. The sad part is 6 months ago he didn’t even know how to text I taught him. My heart is just broken. He gives no reason. He has never done anything like this before. Today I filed the petition for Divorce and just feel so numb. I am a very strong person and I know I will get through this but it sure does hurt. Please just say a little prayer for me. I'm not really scared to stay out on the farm by myself but it is way out. My closest neighbor is about a half a mile away. And if anything did happen nobody is close enough to know about it. Just pray that God will keep me safe and put his angels on extra guard.

I absolutely will be praying for you during this time. I am so sorry to hear about all that you are going through. I believe that if God brings you to it, He will bring you through it. Something is waiting for you- something wonderful. Please hug yourself for me.
If the only prayer in your whole life was thank you that would be suffice. -Meister Eckhart

Victoria, I can see how you would be in shock, especially with the horrible timing of this revelation at such a stressful time. I will certainly be praying for you and for him and what should be for you both. It seems he should owe you an opportunity for counseling to try counselling, explanation, something. It seems like such a mystery how things could seem so normal and just explode one day. It may be that he is afraid to try to make it work. It may be that he is in depression from something not really related to your marriage. Sometimes health issues show up emotionally before there is a physical sign. I believe you are strong and can take care of yourself. I will pray for your safety and feelings of peace if this is meant to be. Hugs, Susan

Victoria I am so sorry. I can't imagine what you are feeling and going through. I will surely pray for you. I live way out and have no close neighbors.I have a friend I call and check in with to let her know I am in for the night after chores. I do this when my husband is out of town. If she does not here from me by a certain time she knows to come and check on me even though she lives 35 min. away. Just a thought to ease your mind. Once again I am so sorry this has happened to you. I pray that you will find peace and safety and come out whole again. Hugs to you.

I did this exact same thing to my ex-husband. At the time, I really didn't know why I left him. It took about a year to figure out why I left him. He may never be able to tell you why so you may never know. The important thing is to get on with your life and try to live it well. I have had compound losses in my life and have had to learn how to move on. That is the best anyone can do.
We are all here for you.

My prayers are with you...on the loss of your father and the loss of your husband. This seems most unusual. Perhaps he is ill or is going through a mid-life crisis of some sort. You two need to talk to see if there is a way to work on your marriage before jumping right into divorce. Are there children involved? Do you think there is someone else? There could be so many reasons for this. I just hate to see you give up and quit. Do you think he is worth trying to keep? Do you love him? Ask yourself these questions. May God give you peace and understanding.
Blessings, Portia

Thank you for your prayers and well wishes. Today was hard because it rained all day and was very gloomy outside. Portia to answer some of your questions He is not willing to talk I did try and yes I still love him but I also know myself very well. I don't trust easily and if trust is broken I just don't have it in me to forgive and forget. I know that I would never trust him again and I am not willing to put myself or him through that. I will make it on my own I just didn't think I would ever have to be alone again and never wanted to be alone again. I'm not giving up and quitting he did that for me. Thank you all again and please keep me and all out there who suddenly find themselves alone in your prayers.

Victoria, I do not know what to say to comfort you, but know that us gals here are praying for you. Sadly, this could happen to any one of us, so we need to be strong sisters! I hope you find peace in the small wonders of the day, like a special bird, a sunrise, or even a double coupon! Prayers for you, yours, and some peace to come!

Victoria, Prayers are sent!
I know how you feel, the night I was moving things out of the home my ex and I shared, my father had a major stroke and died. It was very hard to process the grief of losing my daddy (yes, i'm a daddy's girl) and the grief of losing my home and husband. I had to make the arrangements for mom, and help my son (4 at the time) deal with losing his home, dad and papa. I really didn't think I was going to live thru the months that followed. Just take it moment by moment, breath by breath, one foot in front of the other. Talk to God...a lot. And know there are sisters praying for you. I'm so sorry you have to walk thru this, but know that you CAN do it.
Blessings

Oh the nights are the hardest. During the day I'm so busy trying to do all the things I was already doing and now all the things that he did too. But coming into the house at night is really hard. It's so quiet and I don't have my best friend to tell all the day's events to. I used to look forward to night, kick back in the recliner and laugh about what ever stupid thing happened that day. Now I dread the setting sun. And of all things to have to do today. I've been making a wedding cake. If I had not committed to doing this over a month ago I would have backed out. Imagine trying to get your mind off of a divorce while baking a wedding cake. Thank all of you for letting me have a little vent time. Besides my husband I really only talk to my 2 sisters and I'm afraid I'm going to wear them out so I try not to call them too much. I really don't want to bother them at night but that is the hardest time for me. So getting on here and reading your messages has really helped.
