Heartbreak

My partner of 10 years just told me while I was in hospital he didn’t love me anymore and wants a divorce. We have 3 children together 5, 3, and 5 months, he has hurt me deep in the past and done some serious damage. We have been together all our teenage years.
I don’t know how to move past this, how do I make it okay for my babies and how do I make myself feel better and get past the heart break. I didn’t see this coming as I loved him endlessly 💔

How awful for you. It may not seem like it now but it will get better and you will get stronger. By the sounds of things, there is another woman involved, even if he denies it. I have 3 friends in this position at the moment. All 3 due to other women and their partners creating a relationship over social media. I know you haven’t mentioned it but for him to be so certain and have 3 young kids and do this while you were in hosp, there is more to it on his part. Things will get better. Surround yourself with family and good friends. Take time out for you. Take one day at a time. You have your babies and that’s all that matters right now. You will come out of this stronger and happier. It all takes time. Hang in there. You got this.

What a scum bag. You deserve better. Focus on your kids. You don’t need someone who hurts you while you are in hospital.

Step one: acknowledge that he’s acting in a selfish despicable asshole way.
Step two: acknowledge that you deserve better now but don’t blame yourself for picking him in the past because he obviously was great at times and he gave you three amazing children
Step three: acknowledge that you love him and this hurts and you feel betrayed and sad and allow yourself to feel all of the feelings
Step four: I don’t know. I’ll let you know if I ever get through the first three.

Hugs to you
