He said things had changed but they will have done we had been together 10 years and he thought he had fallen out of love with me but hadnt really.By that time though i had all sorts of thoughts etc going on in my head,things that would never have normally crossed my mind and this led to today."Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away."0

How do you know he 'hadn't really'? Did he say that?
I feel so sorry for you, I can imagine how you feel right now. Give him a little space, then try to talk to him. I do think you should consider some sort of counselling to help with the 'needy' aspect of your personality though. It can only be helpful for you in the future no matter who else is involved.Herman - MP for all!0 -

Counselling sounds like the way forward as prior to all this happening i wasnt needy although i have always been an affectionate person."Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away."0 -
just a thought for the future, once you have had a bit of counselling and taking it that your husband is willing to give things another go,
might i suggest maybe using the distance to your advantage by not moving back in together stright away but by starting to 'date' each other again and trying to make the most of the time you spend together when you do see each other
anyways just a thought and i really do wish you all the best in getting this sorted

on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)0 -

Well i went out with my son today and i was in a right state.I was walking around town like a zombie and not at all with it.I burst out crying in the middle of the street so had people looking at me like i was mad.
My poor son was getting upset because i was upset so that made me worse.
How do i manage each day as its tearing me apart."Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away."0
