Well for anyone who knows my story I'm writing this in absolute shock. Seriously absolute shock! After the knock and no contact I recontacted him again. I heard his side. I believed it. I accepted it. However, today, whilst spending Xmas alone, he has completely laid into me by text. He doesn't ever want to see me again. Never contact him. I'm in utter shock. All I did was love and try to understand. I just, I just don't know what to do or say or type through my tears. Who on earth is this person I relet into my emotions. What an absolute earth? I'm heartbroken. Again. Completely heartbroken.

Hi.... I'm so sorry to read this.... Your partner appears to be extremely cruel and nasty by using you as his outlet for anger and getting arrested.

He brought this downfall on himself... Not you. If he wants to wallow in self denial then so be it...

Its a new decade... a new beginning... you were there willing to support him... if he wants to be alone then so be it. You stay strong, the light from this darkness will shine again.... Best wishes for 2020.

Oh Partner, huge huge hugs. That's so awful for you, and today of all days. I'm not sure if it's of any comfort but a couple weeks ago my husband of over 30 years was clear that we should divorce. That was one morning, in the afternoon he was in tears. He said it to let me go. He felt he didn't deserve me and wanted me to not suffer any more. Also I notice the therapy makes him think very selfishly. I guess, like us, they suffer the ups and downs. Probably more so? You sound very much like me, wanting to believe the best in everyone, and now I realise, putting others first. Maybe for 2020 we need to put ourselves first. And make decisions for us. That may include our partners, but may not.
I hope you find some peace this evening. I'm going to watch Gavin and Stacey. 1st Christmas night on my own, ever. My god this is tough. Lots of love xxxx

Partner,

So very sorry. You really dont need this on top of everything. I think he is obviously showing his true colours. What an arse to do it today. 2020 will be better my love because it can't get any worse. I am sending you love and the biggest hug. Xxx

Thinking of you too. Sorry your spending Xmas alone. I hope your husband can realise what a fantastic wife he has and put all the hard work in he needs to. Sending you a big hug. Thinking of you. Xxx

Thank you for your lovely replies.

It's been an emotional Christmas. For so many on here I suspect. I'm going to make sure 2020 is the best it can be for my children and I. Self care and positivity. I simply can't afford to be dragged down by something which is nothing to do with me. When your best isn't good enough for some people then there's simply nothing else left to give. So my best is going to be given to myself. And my children. Here's to 2020 one and all. Xxx
