Hi everyone! Things with my husband and I have not been going well for a while now and we have decided to take a break. I wanted to put that out there from the beginning, I don't want to get off on the wrong foot. There was a lot of lying and distrust from him and I need huge dose of loyalty and honestly in my life. I'd like some advice from people in the same boat!

Welcome and good luck

Well, I'm actually at the other end of the scale... super happy and in a loving honest relationship.

That said, take my advice. Pick carefully until you meet someone you are totally comfortable with, in love with, etc. It will take awhile but the more time you waste on "maybe this can work" types, the more you waste in the long run.

I think taking a break may be the best thing for you. What I think you need is.. time... which has a way of clearing the mind and refocusing you.

best of luck

Three sides to every story.
Hers, his, and the truth.


Sorry you're hurting.
Welcome to M2.

Sorry to hear about your plight.

Taking a break and breaking up are two different matters, and so, you need to examine what it is you are looking for. Whether there is any chance of either one of you changing, and making it work, clear the air about things between the 2 of you, reconcile and get back together again. If you are looking at that, try to go back on what it was that drew the 2 of you together in the first place.

Or make a clean break, divorce and move on. Wish you the best in whichever path you choose to go on. And welcome to Mingles2!!!

Sorry that you are going through this, but it sounds like you are headed in the right direction that you recognize that you want honesty in your life. Best of luck to you

Hello and welcome to you.

As you see there are very good people here. I understand the difficulty of your situation. I do hope you children will also be comforted during this period of separation. I encourage you to participate in the forums. I look forward to sharing with you soon.

I wish you the best in your pursuits.

if your just separated, what are you looking for?

I think you sir have hit the nail directly on the head.

first of all don't feel that you've become weak or you need a man to support you. You are strong enough to control your life. And confront the man about issue of fidelity and don't let yourself fooled by any of his fake promises. It is the basic human instinct that mind knows when a person is saying sorry because of guilt or just faking it.

if a person is really, you feel is feeling guilty, give him another chance. And if he is likes someone else, so its better to part your ways. Nobody can make anyone love him/her.

Follow your instincts.

God bless you.
