41chevy Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Pouring a cup of coffee this morning and the person I've been with for 48 years and married to for 40 years. . .since we were 14 years old, told me she wants a divorce. I'm at a loss for words. Just letting my BMT friends know so if I.m not on they don't send out FWD and Medium to look..

Gmerrill0516 Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 That is rough as hell I'm sure. See if you can work it out. I hate to say counciling helps but it can if both of you want it too. If not its a waste of energy in my humble opinion. Rest assured that you are not alone and that many friends have been down that road at one time in their lives or another. Talk it out when you can if you can. I am sorry for your troubles. God Bless and we will send prayers your way.Greg 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/38882-may-be-scarce-on-here/#findComment-278515 Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddeere Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Sorry to hear. Had a similar situation after 41 years. Sometimes you grow together or grow apart. I have read that divorce among the 50 + year olds is increasing.

Popular Post Terry T Posted February 11, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted February 11, 2015 I had that morning a few years ago except that I learned it while I was 90 miles from home working a race. Got up Sunday a.m. logged into FB to send her a "good morning" message & found that the spot reserved for "married to or in a relationship with" was blank. Came home that night to an empty house.You are going into a very rough period but in the end it will work out for the best. 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/38882-may-be-scarce-on-here/#findComment-278543 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtymilkman Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I'm sorry to hear that. I've been there too. Come home to a emptied out house. Because she wasn't "having fun" anymore. I learned a lot from that marriage/divorce, not one regret I have, although I was initially crushed. It really makes your next relationship that much stronger. Best advice I can give you......if it looks like it can get messy, hire a private investigator and a good lawyer. Be sure to hire the investigator though. That saved me a good half million dollars. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/38882-may-be-scarce-on-here/#findComment-278558 Share on other sites More sharing options...
