Ex-husband wants to be friends again

« on: November 26, 2018, 08:40:15 PM »

It's only been four months. One day he was asking to finalize our marriage, and the next he's running off with an 18 year old girl.

They had two months of spiralling drug use and he was left homeless. I tried over and over to help him but I was met with hostility.

Now he wants to be "friends" thinking that's a way back to me.

Hi Blissnbreeze and welcome.

What do you want? How long were you together before he took off?
