Heartbroken, my husband left me this morning for another woman

Exactly as the title says, heartbroken, can't function.

So sorry to hear that, I can't even begin to imagine how you must be feeling right now.
Was it completely out of the blue?

Treat yourself gently. You are in shock and he's probably miles ahead of you. You will find lots of support and advice over on the wikivorce forum as well as here. Don't make any hasty decisions, especially about money, and don't listen to the rubbish that comes out of his mouth. You will probably find it helpful to read Vikki Stark's Runaway Husbands.

Do you have any friends or family you can call on right now? Hopefully you can get someone round just to listen (although this place will do the same virtually if that is what you need).


Sorry to hear the news though. These things are never good.

I'm so sorry to hear this. Remember that you won't feel this bad forever and things will improve. I know this isn't helpful right now when you feel terrible, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

Hugs to you xx

And you know it will be rubbish how?

Sorry for your loss, as others have asked you, was it out of the blue?
I notice only last November you posted to another OP "Thank you for coming back to update us on your sad outcome. So many people leave those who offered help, advice and were there for you, wondering. Very kind of you, during what must be a really difficult time.

What a despicable husband you had! Sounds like they deserve each other!

My very best wishes to you and the children for a happy future"

As others have posted, time can be a healer, your post is a warning to those that are complacent on their partners that any morning, the partner can decide to up and leave and life isn't just about one person in a relationship .

Very sorry to hear this, OP. Have things been rocky for a while or were you totally surprised?

No it's not but I assume that most people who are married don't expect their partners to be having affairs. Not sure that complacency has much to do with it either, people have affairs for all sorts of reasons.
