Well, my husband of 19 years just didn't come home one Friday afternoon. I thought he was in an accident or something bad. He couldn't be truthful and went thru different reasons why. His reasoning when he finally came home on Sunday evening was he might have memory problems (those were his exact words). Yep, he forgot he was married!
He barely was around for 5 days after this totally putting me off on seeing a Doctor or talking and walked out at 2 in the morning. He came back around 8am and figured I went to work, stole my car keys and thought he had all the house keys. He didn't. He was going to try to lock me out of our house. It took a few days to find out where he was staying and what he was doing. Of course, his lying family helped him do this. Me still thinking he might have something physical or mental going on. (He had a history, since birth, of problems and was on medication).
He had been seeing a piece of trash for 2 years and couldn't be a man about it. Told me he had filed for divorce, which he hadn't. My lawyer finally convinced me to file for separation to protect myself and recieve maintainance payments from him.
Thats when he finally proceed with a divorce.
My family, friends and co-workers were stunned. Not us! We were the envyed couple. Doing so many things together. He sent flowers all the time (now I know why). It's been a year and half now I still here from people who can't believe it. My mother has been very depressed since, for what I've been thru and how much she had loved and trusted him. He's lost a business from his actions and most of his friends and contacts. I heard last week that his family has now found out the truth or various things and have little contact with him also.
As for me, I've lost my home and all I worked for 19 years. Have moved to another state . . .and starting over.
Needless to say, my trust is low, but my head is high.
Surviving!

I was married for 11 years to a big jerk. Womanizer, verbal psychical & emtional abuse. Drug & alcohol abuse.
I finally got sick & tired, plus I left 7 days after the 89 earthquake in SF Bay Area. I always said it took a 7.5 to knock some sense into my head!
My family was crazy happy.

Sad to say - Sometimes people just fall out of love with each other. (and it's hard for that one person to step up to make it be known) You don't want to waste your life with someone who's not right for you, but you want to make sure that it is a true feeling you have before making that decision. Life goes by too quickly.
Example: Breakups happen if they one/both have changed life goals or different interest.

people just grow apart sometimes. I got married at 25, and I won't say how old I am now, but as you well know, people change as the years roll on and sometimes people just don't have the same interests as they did in their earlier years.
I don't think it's anything personal most of the time, it just happens.

I was married for 25 years when my ex decided she wanted a young man, so she left, and moved in with him. After she cheated, needless to say, we got divorced. My family(kids) were relieved when she moved out, to ease the tension.

30 years and reason for soon to be divorce, husband cheated with company tramp and recovering alcoholic, he really picked a winner, and now she has gotten tired of him and his health problems and kicked him out, no chance for reconciliation trust is gone.
