My husband of 20 years told me he got his own place: Advice?

Best to check him out and reason for split. Something is not right for your safety.

You need to learn to communicate with each other instead of others. Suggest couples therapy to him. Twenty years of marriage is a long time to just walk away from. I would suggest counseling and if he refuses, then you know where your marriage stands

Very Strange. Sounds like an agenda. Easy way out once you have your own place!! So very sorry for you.

Iā€™m sorry that youā€™re going through this and wish you all the best. The Communication issue you thought had gotten better hasnā€™t. It sounds like itā€™s time for couples and individual consulting. But as mentioned above get your finances in order and hope for the best but be prepared for the worse.

If he acquired this apartment and youā€™re married isnā€™t it also considered yours?
Iā€™d check and see if you can get a key and access!

Iā€™m sorry this is hurtful.
I hope the best for you.

Clearly he checked out if he got another place. Donā€™t use his dad as an excuse for his actions. You 100% he isnā€™t seeing someone else? This is a drastic move.

Donā€™t jump to conclusions. Heā€™s never given you a reason to doubt him before so donā€™t listen to that. maybe heā€™s going through something within himself and doesnā€™t know how to fix it yet. What doesnā€™t come out in the wash, will come out in the rinse. Good luck to you both

So much bad advice here. Give him his space. You guys love eachother? He probably has some stuff heā€™s going through. Give him space when he contacts you love him like before. If he stops calling donā€™t call back. It takes time. ā€œGet a lawyerā€ advice is pre mature

My boss did this to his wife. It turns out he and our office manager were having a long running affair. They would be late for the morning appointments, afternoon appointments after lunch while they were sneaking off to the house they rented behind their spousesā€™ backs. It was disaster for our office and for the wife and kids of course/husband. We had to hear all about it. Their pastor came in our office. She was fired and lost her husband. It was a fricking mess. Run to a lawyer immediately. Protect your financial assets and your house.

I know a couple of couples who live separately, but their marriage is even stronger than it was when they lived together. But you need to get him to communicate and be honest with you to find out what his intentions are and what he wants. Maybe heā€™s just going through some shit and needs space. I WISH I had the option to have my own place that I could run off to for the weeks my bipolar downs take the life out of me.

It sounds like someone else is there for himā€¦ unfortunately

First of all stop with trying to make excuses for him. He probably does love you, that just doesnā€™t disappear, but sounds like heā€™s not ā€œin loveā€ with you anymore and there is a difference. You canā€™t make someone love you. As tough as it may be to swallow, heā€™s made his decision so itā€™s time for you to move on too. Now you can sit around and do the woulda, shoulda, coulda thing and drive yourself nuts or you can put on your big girl panties and do you. He made his decision :woman_shrugging:t3:

Forget the step-dad ā€œtough timeā€ bullshit excuse!!! Itā€™s called a midlife crisis and a younger woman with lots of estrogen!!! If he really needed space he wouldā€™ve told you before getting hand so you wouldnā€™t be blindsided. Get a consult with an attorney who specializes in family and divorce for some legal adviceā€¦

Take care of yourself. Find a therapist to talk to.
If he wants ā€œspaceā€, give it to him.
But do not sit around waiting for him to call.
Go out with friends. If you donā€™t have any, join a gym, exercise or dance class and make some.
Develop and invest in YOURSELF. Pursue a hobby, volunteer, or take a class at the community college.
And when and if he does start calling and wanting to come back around, DONā€™T reconcile right away or nothing will have changed or been resolved.
Perhaps go to marriage counselling together and give that a good 6 months trial FIRST.
Actually first, you might want to consult a lawyer, make an accounting of all your assetts, and move half your liquid cash into a separate account.
Should you guys reconcile, you can always merge it back. But itā€™s better to make yourself safe and financially secure, than sorry.

We as wives need to stop making excuses for our husbands when they do this trifling mess, Iā€™m sure in the 20 years youā€™ve been together you didnā€™t go get your own placeā€¦. So obviously he has moved on Sis and Iā€™m so sorry but maybe you need to put YOU FIRST this time.

Donā€™t always assume the worst. Try sitting down with him and taking to him about this. Look him dead in the eye and be like be honest with me about the situation . Why did you feel as though you had to go and do this. If he canā€™t give you a straight answer or be honest with you then tell him ā€œdonā€™t let the door hit ya where the good lord split yaā€ Best of luck. Hope things work out.

He cheating on you and needs a place close to work so he can bone the bitch. Sorry to be so straight out with you but I think you need to see things for what it is.

I suggest moving on, he likely isnā€™t gonna be with you. He got all his ducks in a row before telling you. That means he has thought hard and made up his mind. Sorry this is happening. It probably has very little, if anything, to do with his stepdad either.

Sounds like he has had this planned out for awhile unfortunately and has already moved on. I would tell him he needs to get out now even if his place is not ready yet he can go stay in a hotel. Obviously he does not love or respect you anymore if he can just move on like that without even talking to you. File for a divorce and child support asap. You deserve better.

Iā€™d walk in that new place of his, because guess what? Youā€™re married! Itā€™s yours too! Iā€™d be like ā€œsooo, how we gonna decorate this? Maybe put a gallow here, a torcher chamber there. Yes, this will be an awesome place for your body to be discovered.ā€ :unamused:

Girl, if you want it to work then put your foot down. If he doesnā€™t like it, then go straight to your nearest courthouse and file for a divorce. If youā€™re not working (depending on the state in which you live) get his ass for alimony.

You know as well as he does that this isnā€™t how a marriage works. Itā€™s time for you to tell him how itā€™s gonna be, not the other way around.

Heā€™s already left. You are the only person left in this relationship.

If he just went out and got him an apartment without you knowing then he must have some money on the side that you didnā€™t know about as well to do this so he is hiding multiple things from you.

You need to get yourself legally protected, get tested, get a therapist. You got this! Take all of you financial documents and personal documents and put them in a safe place outside of the home. If he decides to come back at some point donā€™t do it. He needs to earn this relationship back after he tanked it.

You need to find yourself a lawyer and get to filing for divorce and custody of children. He has someone else and is creating a barrier between you and him so he can do as he wishes. The only time this works is if the couple lives in both sides of a duplex or literally right next to each other bc it is done but done in the sense that your partner is only a couple steps away.

ā€¦.Iā€™m so aggravated seeing the same post with minimal differences.

  • why are you allowing anyone to treat you like a doormat?
  • why havenā€™t you done anything about his lack of communication?

Either way: wise up. He had a plan in place and has been discussing leaving you with whomever else heā€™s talking to which is most likely someone heā€™s sleeping with. If heā€™s found a new place then you need to realize a few things and get on the ball tonsecueinf your independence:

  1. He didnā€™t give 2 :fox_face: about you if he did this behind your back.
  2. He didnā€™t care enough about his children to have adult conversations about how this would affect them before now.
  3. Heā€™s most likely cheating on you and have been for a bit.
  4. You need to go file for custody and support immediately on the grounds of abandonment if heā€™s moving out.
  5. Hire a lawyer immediately to help you get everything straightened out.
  6. Set up therapy for you immediately. Not only to help you process what a dirtbag he is for throwing this in your face like this but for his previous controlling behavior. Oh and to help you realize YOU DESERVE better than to be treated like trash like this.

Im going to say this. Please stop accepting love as a mitigating factor to disrespectful, selfish and a$$hole behaviors.

Get a lawyer. File for divorce now, donā€™t wait. He definitely has someone else and this is a BIG sign/red flag NOT to ignore.

First, know that there is a HUGE difference between someone loving you and someone being in love with you.

Sounds like your husband loves you. I mean after 20 years, loving somebody can come naturally.

The sad thing, your husband isnā€™t IN LOVE with you, because if he was, he wouldnā€™t be moving out.

The best advice I can suggest is to get a lawyer. Be sure you have all your ducks in a row and file for a divorce.

Find yourself a good therapist. Being abandoned can leave you feeling worthless. You need to re find yourself and find your worth.

Get up, brush yourself off and look into the future with a clear mind.

You can do this!!

Be at peace with all your decisions.
