I don't really like my husband anymore tbh.
When he gets home it's a two hour bath eat then out to the pub home gone midnight.
He has even said he doesn't want me to meet anyone if he dies doesn't want his property going to me and another man.
I have been exchanging messages online with a wealthy American gentleman who is divorced and a few years younger than me.
He lives mainly in York but has a home in Boston USA.
He just wants someone who appreciates him and love and has said marriage and one child.
His ex sounds a right drama queen and cold and selfish like my husband.
He wasn't really there for me when my mum died 6 years ago.
But when his mum died in her nineties a year after mine he wanted all the sympathy in the world.
He even wants me to go to his daughters again on boxing Day again with his ex wife going I don't see why I should always do what he wants.
How does that sit with you?
Will you put it off and off and off like you did with your current husband?
I really can't understand how someone can be in a long term relationship, start to exchange messages with someone and then be at the stage of discussing marriage and children with them.
Maybe I'm just old-fashioned.
For your own sake - and safety - just make sure your 'wealthy American gentleman' is who he says he is.2 -

This sounds callous but if he died in an accident I would be upset but soon get over it.
I'm not physically attracted to him anymore.
I just hope if I do decide to leave he won't refuse a diviorce so I have to wait three years.
String the "wealthy American" along by asking him to fund your studies
Or seriously, leave him if you can work out a plan. Maybe you will have to wait if he won't agree to a divorce. Use that time to decide where you really want to go in life. Don't focus on finding somebody new - you may find a new you first.
I need to think of something new here...1 -
You both have faults, but to me adultery just means you need an excuse to leave him.
If you don't want to be with him, leave. Why do you need to leave him for someone else.
Either stop with the sideline affair, or carry it on and move out.Forty and fabulous, well that's what my cards say....0 -
Wealthy American? Go for it. What could possibly go wrong?
