End Of Marriage

[karenmac60]

So mr mac and I split up today. He's always been quite distant, we've never really had a physical relationship and I've been very frustrated and lonely over the years - some of which is medical and some down to his upbringing. I have been getting closer to a guy from work of late (nothing has happened) and his partner (who is also a colleague) found a text message from me saying I missed him. She has told all of my colleagues and bosses including mr mac. I can't say I blame her really but it's been a horrible day. Not expecting any sympathy - just saying.

Ah, a better day then Karen? That's good and a good start. As you say.. one step at a time and things will get better. Time to care for yourself now I'd say......x

Karen, I'm so sorry to hear that you are going through this.

I have no pearls of wisdom, just wanted to send you hugs.

Karen, I have two marriages behind me, and I know how upsetting it can be, despite being done for all the right reasons. I would just like to offer you my sympathies. It does get easier, but don't jump into another relationship too soon. I can understand getting attention from a work colleague and how flattering that can be. I have also been in that situation as well. Just concentrate on you and getting your emotions back on track. The last thing you need right now is to be embroiled in some love triangle.

I wish you much happiness for the future. xxx

Only just seen this and can't add a great deal to the support that you have already had - except that to say that I'm sad that things have gone wrong, but suspect it may ultimately be for the best, and I really hope that it all works out for you.

You only have one life so (as others have said) "Carpe Diem"

(which is easy for us to say, and much harder for you to do)

sammy48 is so wise, I agree with him/her and hope you take notice.
I wish my first Husband had just ended our marrage when he met his colleague instead of making a joke of me for 2 years. The funny thing was I would have understood.

Sorry to hear this Karen....see if you can get some time off to get away somewhere like a country inn - just some downtime, good food, a few drinks and time to think and map things out.....

You have my utmost sympathy, just tread carefully for all involved esp yourself. Take your time with everything, no rash decisions, and good luck. XX
