Title: Does this ever get better Post by: pausercell on September 01, 2019, 08:02:04 PM Nearly four months ago my world was rocked by my wife. After over a year of therapy (marriage and individual) I felt my marriage was getting better. I was very wrong. After lying to me another time and choosing herself over our marriage I had had enough. Her silent treatment became so severe that she wouldn't even acknowledge when I would greet her right to her face. After nearly a week of her flat out ignoring me I couldn't take it anymore and called her out. This was a massive mistake. She ended up calling the cops and them demanded a divorce. I became so depressed I called 911 and checked myself into a hospital for a night. Right before I was discharged she filed a TPO and discarded me. Now I'm fighting an uphill legal battle. Her smear campaign has cost ,e my friends and family and now can't be with my kids. I'm alone, scared and trying to see any signs of daylight. Please tell me, does this ever get better?

I am sorry for what brings you here but I am very happy you found us and decided to reach out for support. We have a lot of people who have been or are in similar situations and we all share what works and does not work to better our situations.
You ask if things get better. Yes, things do. You can learn tools and strategies to help you recover and to communicate with your soon to be ex wife (stbxw) in ways that will help reduce conflict and increase the chances for better outcomes for you. Because of that, I am going to move your thread from the Help board to the Bettering a Relationship board. Please do not be fooled by the title. It simply refers to making things as conflict free as possible from your end and teaching you better ways of coping. We also have a Family law board where there are lots of very experienced people who can guide you as you work your way through your legal issues. In the meantime, please settle in and read and post in your own threads and those of others. You are not alone any more. We get it here and can help support you. *welcome* |
