My husband left me and I am really sad. I know it was probably better ( he wasnt the best) but I still feel I miss him and want him back.

Hi Laura,


Sometimes... we miss what we wish we had (not what we really ended up with).

Think about what you said - You want him back because you miss him. Been there, feeling that now. I'm learning the difference between saying and admitting that I'm lonely for another person beside me and really wanting to go back to how I was living. Big difference. I think it's always easier to go back to what we know that face what we don't know yet. But remember, you can learn.

I'm right there with you. My husband has been out of the house for 2 months now and I feel like I want him here more than ever. I wish I knew how to not want him, like he doesn't seem to want me. Just wanted you to know that you're not alone.

I am so struggling with this. I feel like I'm now mourning a marriage I never had. I'll start getting meloncholy and thinking about the good days and then realize there weren't any. But somewhere in my mind is this peaceful comfortable marriage that simply never existed outside of my mind.

The only thing I can figure is that as long as we were together I held out this hope that just MAYBE.... but maybe never came. The real marriage is a far cry from the fantasy one.

We never give up dreaming, do we?
