Didn't want to say it, but I agree!

She's made out pretty good with the gambling $$$ through the years but who knows maybe it did have an effect. I might be stupid but I believe that there is no one else. She has felt this way for along time and just doesn't want to be married. If she is lying and she has interest in someone else at this point I don't really care. It's over and I am moving on. I have not exactly been an angel either. It is what it is. We talked and came up with an agreement on how to split everything up and now we just have to file the papers. It's going as good as can be expected. Looking back through the years I wish I had done a few thinks differently but I think we just grew apart.

Why are you listening to these idiots? Most of the guys have slept with less than 10 females and are boringly married. You know your wife - if you don't think she was cheating on you the chances are she wasn't - seems like she's just real bored and would rather be alone and take her chances of possibly finding a relationship that is exciting.

People do drift apart. The gambling probably did wear on her, but she had traits that wore on you too. I would still have a lawyer on retainer JIC.

Great point....It amazes me that everytime someone starts a thread about a wife/girlfriend breaking up with them, people assume there is another man involved and she was cheating. Not always so!

ahh, the "there's no one else, its not you, it's me, you deserve better"

Sorry Harrington but I am going to be real with ya, there's someone else and it is about you.

However, if you haven't been putting the effort in to make things work then maybe from your point of view it is her and you want something more/different.

Best of luck, but I'm going to tell you this- Girls are more scandalous then men are. Mostly because if a girl wants something she can go get it easy, and they know it.

Haha, funny but true.

OTOH, thank G-D for call girls, sluts & BKK.

I agree with this completely. Many times an individual's interests change and people grow apart.

Just because these douche bags got cheated on they, assume everyone else is like their shitty EX's

We spoke last evening and now that the initial shock has worn off her and I are ready to move on and will remain close. We are parting on good terms and have split everything 50/50 with no lawyers involved. In 20 years my wife has always been there for me and she said she will always be there for me. We just grew apart and decided that this split will be best for both of us. People change as we both admitted we have and sometimes it's just better just to move on. Have I always been a perfect husband?? I'll be the first to say no I have not. We were an awesome team together on most things but our interests in life now are different. I have and always will have the upmost respect for her and I wish her the best. I could feel this coming for the last few years but I was scared of life without her. I'm 48 and still would love to meet someone and start a new life. She is an awesome Mom and has always taken care of us. Before I even think of a new relationship I must first work on me being a better person. Later boys!!

Very good attitude Mr. Harrington. As long as you remember that the kids come first in this situation then you'll be able to work through it. I wish you the best of luck moving forward.

Harry always liked your style. Harry for the last two years or so about how many times a month did you sleep with her and have sex if at all?? Just curious man. Hang in, God Bless and stay strong.

Hadn't been on here much lately. Sorry dude you went through it to. The kids are the most importand and just keep your relationship strong with them.Mine left over two months ago and i still feel like it was yesterday. When i think back at some of the things i said i should have been shot. Nothing really bad, just stuff to hurt her feelings.I would have felt better , no i wouldn';t i lied if she had somone else.I had a private detective watch her for a week and he said she didn't leave the townhouse for over a week except to walk the dogs three times a day. He said he heard her crying constantly and that really didn't make my day. i paid him off and got off my medicine and now i know she isn't coming back. She said it was a great 25 years but we just grew way apart. It is tough when you don't want it and i can't say she ever said anything bad to me or did anything i should be mad over. Ihad the best and just totally screwed up, but i'm getting on.

Do you really just come back to theRX and start trolling around in 2 yr old threads?

Wait until you get to the one where harrington tells us he got a sex change......that should blow your mind.
