I was not sure weather to post this on here or not. I was perfectly happy on Monday but on Tuesday my whole world fell apart. My OH told me that he did not want to be with me anymore we were together for nearly 15 years, as you can imagine im in bits. He is not prepared to give it another try he has made up his mind and there is nothing i can do about it. He also told me that ive done nothing wrong its him thats at fault and not to blame myself, well i do it must have been something i have or have not done. My main concern now is my son and i will make sure he does not suffer, we are both comforting each other the little darling made me a card and bought me some lovely flowers to cheer me up. My family and friends are a great support to me.
I may not get on here now as much as i like as im not sure if i can stay in the house, im going to get legal advice next week, because we are not married im not sure were i stand.
Sorry to have come on with more bad news.
Karen x

You're having a really rough time of it at the mo aren't you Karen. I'm sorry to hear of your bad news.
I don't expect it to be much of a consolation but I've been there, done that and come out the other side a better person with a better life. The first Mrs FA did exactly the same to me. It's horrible to have to go through but take each day as it comes and try to be strong for your son.
Take care FA x

Thanks FA ive been through this before with my X husband and i thought this one was going well, he has done to me what his X wife did to him, im trying not to show how im feeling to my son and trying to keep things as normal as possible but its not easy. as you said take each day as it comes and thats what im doing. William is feeling it too how do you tell an eight year old that his daddy does not want to be with us, it broke my heart when i told him but he had to know, its awfull when children are involved me and my baby are feeling it but we will get through this.

Karen, nothing much to add to what has already been said. You have been through a great deal recently, and this feels like the last straw. There will be many of us here who have been where you are, and have come through it better and stronger. You have your son, the most precious thing, and you will get through it together. He will be sad, but he still has his Mummy. It is difficult to see ahead out of the darkness, but that is natural. Come on here and let it all out. I hope all goes well at the lawyer's. Nowadays not being married doesn't take away all of your rights. You can do it Karen. Remember, you are a woman, you can do anything Everything you need to get through is right there inside you.

Oh Karen you've been through so much. Eventually you will realise that you can't make him stay if he wants to leave, because that would make things awful for you both. You have your son and together you can be strong. Take each day as it comes, and if you do get a chance to get online occasionally you know you have friends here to talk to about anything.

Hi Karen, so sorry to hear your news and even although I live on the other side of the world to you, I will be thinking of you and your son.
Here in NZ if a couple have been together for three years or more they have to divide their assets 50/50 when they separate. Does it work the same way where you are?
Presumably too, your son's father will have to provide for him.
I am pleased that you are seeking legal advice as I am sure all these avenues will be looked at.
Just make sure that you get all you are entitled to.
Take care and keep in touch.
