My part:
I was young - had no idea who I was
I expected him to make me happy
Didnt know how to communicate
I was manipulative because my self esteem was so low I couldnt just say what I wanted or needed. eg. I would like you to come home for dinner turned into: you are a terrible father, you should be home for dinner for your children
I almost had sex with his best friend and he caught us in the act ( all I wanted was some love and kindness and thought this other guy could give me that)
I was mean and negative and not nice to be around
His part:
Total inability to communicate
Inability to feel compassion
Alcohol problem - would get drunk and stay out all night
workaholic -he worked on xmas day even
after me harasssing and attacking him so much he gave up and emotionally shut himself away from me
Poor parenting skills
was never home (dont blame him)
very very mean with money
violent at the end
Luckily we are now both able to chat to each other with no problems. We have a child together who is happy and loved. She lives with me and sees him whenever she/he wants. There is no issue with child support (he pays the school fees). I respect his love for her and am happy for her that he adores her and vice versa. We are supportive of each other and are always positive about the other parent.
It has taken almost 10 years of divorce for me to realise my role in my divorce - I am a better person for it.
I am now happily married to the most wondeful man in the world and I am NOTHING like the shrew I was in my first marriage.

My first marriage was to someone I had known since I was 6 yrs old. We were married 17 yrs and in 1996 he left me for another girl and another life. I had 4 small babies and was so sick over it. He wanted a divorce right away to marry HER but I drug it out for so long she finally wouldn't wait and left him and now he is jobless and woman less and has been alone ever since and I am happily married for the past 8 yrs and we live nicley and are best friends. the divorce was the best thing that happened to me even though I didn't know it then

I was young and foolish, married an older, wealthy man from another country and learned the hard way about emotional,verbal, and sometimes physical abuse. He was a narcissist and the type to hit me and then say why did you make me have to hit you. Crazy, but I did love him for a long time and it took alot of time for me to finally get up the nerve to leave him. I'm glad I did, it was one year ago and I'm having alot of fun actually living my life now. I hope I find true love and happiness (:

I divorced my first husband for emotional abuse. I have been married to my second hubby for almost 11 years now and he's wonderful! He's the guy that God made just before he busted the mold!
