Amanda, my heart hurts for you. My first husband and I divorced because he was cheating on me. He had convinced me that I was too fat and no one would ever want me. I didn't let that deter me. My current husband of 20 years worships the ground I walk on and would do anything in the world for me. He accepted me and my two children as his own. He's my gift from God and I thank God for him every day. My point is that no matter how awful you feel right now, you pick yourself up and keep going. It's not how many times you get knocked down that counts. It's how many times you get back up. We love you and will be here for you at any hour of the day.

Rented a car and packed it tight, took his puppy and moved to Michigan to be with another woman. I'm so numb right now Im unsure what to do. I havent been on in several days and the reason is, when he told me it was over I tried to overdose and had to be admitted to the hospital. I got out saturday night.I hadnt even gotten to the car when he told me he was leaving the next day. He tells me he loves me and cares for me but he has to see what is between him and her. They dated for two years and broke up eight years ago. He claims he thought she was dead and after learning differently he has to see if they are in the past or still in love. He said that after seven years together he had grown to love me but that I had been a consolation prize because he couldnt have her. He tells me to wait for him, that he may come back to me one day. Im a fool of course because I will probably wait forever. Im so scared, Im not sure how to go on. He controlled and handled everything. I have no income, Im trying to get my disabilty. My mother and stepfather live across the hall. Its a duplex and the deed is in my name. They say they will handle the bills, theyve been paying them for awhile now anyway. Im so lost at least I have my chis. He also left his foxhound. Nine years old the poor thing seems lost as well. I just need you to know whats going on in my life. You guys online are my only friends. .
