Missing Jerky STBXH

[Mistaken Identity]

I've filed for a divorce after six years of marriage to a man with multiple emotional/mental problems. Among his many less-than-admirable qualities are his inability (refusal?) to keep a job and his habit of disappearing without warning for days at a time. We are both in our forties, so the naivete of youth is no excuse. I haven't seen him since Christmas Eve. He's living with his mother in another state. We no longer talk on the phone because during our last phone conversation, he told me he wanted me to give him money. That he deserved money. I had my house up for sale and we were supposed to use the money to pay cash for another house and then have some money in the bank. That didn't happen, and I think he had been counting on the cash. Anyway, it's crazy that I feel sad today that our relationship has come to this. I feel like a loser; like I should've tolerated the drinking and the selfishness...After all, I know lots of women who do. Oh well...Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks.

Wow your Ex sounds like my soon to be Ex. I am online right now trying to find some self help for dealing with my upcoming seperation. I have been with this person for 10 years, and all through our relationship I have dealt with similar issues. I am done, and want to get out of this while I still have some life left, yet it is sad and does make me want to cry. I just have to believe that it will get better with time, and that in the end I will be much happier...

Thank you. I know you're right; it will be better in the end. I guess I'm just worried that I'll be alone for the rest of my life.

Thanks Alphamale. Maybe there are decent single guys out there. I guess we just have to wait for the bitches to turn loose of them. LOL.
