25 years of marriage, two duaghters grown, wife doe'snt love me and wants a divorce, whats left???

Answer 1

I am very sorry to hear that! You still have your life to live for. Good things can still happen for you. DON'T GIVE UP ON YOURSELF!!!!

Answer 2

Its tough in your situation.

I really reccomend you take some time for yourself. Go on a vacation. This isn't just to "run away" from your problems. It will allow you some calm and peace to reevaluate your life and priorities.

I don't know your exact situation, so maybe their is some hope for your relationship with your wife. Are there issues regarding money, drinking or drugs? If they are the reason your marriage is stressed, they are choices you can change. I hope you and your wife can resolve any problems. Talk to her with an open mind and an open heart.

Remember that "no man is an island". Someone is there for you. It might be God, or simply a friend or relative. Look to others for support.

Good luck. I'll say a prayer that things work out for you.

Answer 3

you move on and do the things you have always wanted to do
you just change who you do it with
trvel to some place you want to go

this is the deal people always plan there life after the kids are gone with someone without considering that life is ever changeing
this is now a growing experience for you
time for you to go to movies you want to see travel the way youwant to travel
eat what you want when you want

the trick is learning the difference between lonely and solitude

if you do want to meet someone new try singles cruzes
they have them for all ages

travel to some really cool place with your daughters
by the way never talk about your X with them it is uncomfortable for them and they do not want to have to feel like they have to take sides

join a club take up a new hobby learn to play an instument
take a cooking class
thats the other thing stay busy

you will be fine this is a new chance at life think of it as positive and make it great

It may not be the story you intended but that is the best part when the story changes you get to be creative and write a chapter you never expected and I bet it will be your best

Answer 4

Well all right, congratulations my brother, you completed your marital and childbearing duties. Now its time to party, some people call it a midlife crisis, but I say it’s a second chance at your childhood. Go out and do all the things you put on hold while raising your children. Go buy a new Corvette or a custom Harley and go cruising, remember cruising? Go find yourself a girlfriend fifteen or twenty years younger, pop a few Viagra and bang her until the sun comes up, remember exciting sex? You will be the envy of all your married male friends, as you share your manly dating stories with them. Quick bro, run out and have some damn fun, before she wants to come home again lol… 43? or 23 with 20 years experience?

Answer 5

Your life is not over and the world is not going to end because your wife wants a divorce. You still have a whole lot of living left. Get on with your life and live it well. The calmness after the storm can be a beautiful thing.

Answer 6

Everything is left. You have your daughters, you have your life, Divorce is like a death and it takes time and a long healing process to get over it, it will get better you can go on and be happy again, it may not seem like it now, but , there is life after divorce. I have been thru 3 of them and it gets better day by day, week by week. If she does not love you anymore then go on with your life and you will find someone that will love you for who you are and that you will love back in that same way. Good luck and take care.

Answer 7

A newer and better life. Your daughters aren't vanishing and your current wife may already be playing the field (sorry, but that's often the case). Your life is the issue; and you WILL get through this no matter how things work out.

Personally, I suggest you take charge of as much of this as you can. Sure, fight for your marriage but on your terms. So, if she decides to go...you're solid, you're okay. Like the old saying,"No matter what happens, your toes are still tappin' ".

Good luck--and hang in there.

Answer 8

What's left is the rest of your life. It may sound too simplistic for you right now, but the rest of your life will be just what you make it, nothing more, nothing less. Do your "grief" work, which must be done with the death of a relationship just like with the death of a person. But then move on with a vigor that shows yourself and the world you still have a lot to give, and that positive energy will be returned to you. Good luck.

Answer 9

well a second Chance to live your life over and do things that you always wanted to ,meet people that are in the same spot . date other women celebrate you new found freedom there is a hole world out there waiting for you to experience . life isn't over because you held a marriage together for all these years more then likely for the kids it only shows that you are a good man and you will find many wonderful things out there relax and take one day at a time. there is to much left you not dead yet. my dad is 73 and he is having the time of his life . my sister is 51 and she is having the time of her life I am 50 and I love my life. every one that I have met has found a new value to there free dome .

Answer 10

if she wants a divorce, what can you do?

I recogmend you do some travelling, see the world, have an open mind. I dont mean go to Disney Land or Florida. I mean go to the Jungle of C.America , go to Egypt, go to Africa, travel Arabia, Malaysia.

You will see the world and know that where you are is just a small part in a big puzzle.

Answer 11

I'm sorry to say but if the wife does not want to stay married, then you cannot force her, BUT you can move on 1 day at a time and eventually meet someone who deserves what you have to offer and give you what you need back in return, I know it's going to hurt like hell but you'll eventually move on. Best of Wishes
