My husband and I have been living together for 12 years. We decided to get married a week ago on our 12 annversary. I feel he does not love me as much and he always told me that it was me to go see a therapist but a couple of days ago he told me that my problem is that he has to lie to keep me happy. Now I want to get a divorce but I do not know how to bring it up. That comment really turned me off completely. I do not feel like bothering with him at all. Can someone please help? He has always given me everything and treats me with respect and has never (according to him) cheated on me. I have no indication of it anyway. I am very confused. We have children and I know that a divorce will affect them.

hello Antonia.

i'm sorry to hear that things aren't working out the way you expected. it must be quite a difficult situation to deal with.

but i'm afraid i didn't really understand your post. could you please give more details as to the problem? what i have been able to grasp is that he doesn't take responsibility for his mistakes and blames you for the problems and by making that comment, he's sort of saying that he hasn't been totally honest to you in all those years.

but were those 12 years those of happiness? of were you having problems even then?

do you have suspicions that he has cheated on you during that time? how come he has started saying these kind of things now only? who's idea was it to get married? both of you?

sorry for all these questions, but if you could please give more input, maybe it would help me in understanding the problem exactly.

take care Antonia
