Assume your real life partner and not your fab play partner ?

Sorry to hear that.

I split from my ex husband after nearly 25 years. It was hard but times a great healer.

I walked out!!

It was a case of the grass being greener.

It wasn’t to start with.

It was hard in the marriage and I’ve learnt to be happy within myself

That's awful to hear, but I would rather someone was upfront a told me they had no feelings, than live a lie. I hope you find happiness again one day with someone who loves and appreciates you.

Sorry to hear that. Just concentrate on yourself do things that make you happy and occupy your mind. Take your time before getting involved with anyone else and enjoy your own company and also spend time with friends new and old but only positive ones. Love yourself before trying to love again

I'm sorry to hear this happened and you have my full sympathy for it. When it happened to me after 11 years together it was a sad couple of weeks but the sadness gets a bit more manageable as the days go by. It'll always be there but how you feel and move forward will change. Take it slowly and talk to friends and family whenever you can.

So sorry to hear that. I walked away from a 27 year relationship that I had stayed in way too long as we had kids. So slightly different, however being on my own terrified me which was also part of the reason I stayed.

However it takes time ,but you do find yourself, I had so many people say to me I was a completely different person after about six months as the pressure was no longer there. I suspect you've been living under pressure and although the way he has walked away is awful I think after a while you will realise this and perhaps feel happier within yourself. Xx

I divorced my husband 4 years ago after a 20yr marriage.

The first 18mths I spent entirely focusing on myself /children /home.

I have now fully embraced single life, and yes sometimes it can get a little lonely, but I have my friends, family, work, and a whole new world opened up to me.

It takes time, but you grow a lot as a person. Take time to find yourself, before anyone else and good luck OP.

It's all the stress of selling house looking for something else on top of feeling so hurt by him. But yes I will eventually get there.

I split with my partner after 19 years together. And even though I didn't want to be with him anymore, it took a good year to just come to terms with it all. And I then had a year of counselling to figure out the damage he had done.

If you're blaming yourself, sounds as though you need lots of time to work through what happened and why. It takes two people to make a relationship work. Why're you laying all the blame for the end of this one at your own door? That's not fair.

Sorry to hear of your separation, however you've now been given the opportunity to start afresh and do things differently, but you have to help yourself.

My first wife left me while I was at work, came home to find the cupboards empty. We'd been together for ten years and married for seven of them. I spent the first week permanently pissed and smoking sixty a day, thankfully my good friends convinced me that I was better off without her. They were so right and after three years of "friendships", I got together with a single neighbour that I'd liked for several years.

After twenty seven years together I'm now single again after she'd lost her seven year battle with cancer, she passed away in 2018.

I picked myself up, bought a campervan and started going to dance classes on my own. I'm now getting romantically involved with a widow at the dance school and I couldn't be happier.

I'm in my mid sixties and if I can do it so can anyone, but you have to help yourself.

One life, live it.

Best wishes to you. x

That's on him. You might not ever get answers from him but you will find closure - it just takes time. You can only control what you do. I imagine you feel very hurt and upset just now - be gentle on yourself.

I split with my 17 year partner a little before covid and lockdowns one. Furlough followed and the risk of redundancy. I'll be honest, it wasn't a good time.

Seeing as he left you you may have questions that you want answered but he may not have them or want to tell you. It's not easy on either party, it's a massive change

Cliché but it does get easier. Things will remind you of him, you will have good days and bad days too

Take your time. Do things for you.

So sorry to hear this and it definitely sucks the way he’s behaved! As others have said, you need to take the time out now for you!

I ended my 20+ year relationship just before lockdown and despite it being my decision it’s still a journey and took time for me to rebuild my own life again. But time does help and for me it was the best decision I ever made, I’m happier now than I’ve been in many many years. I hope you find the closure you need to be able to move forward quickly. Always happy to chat if you need an ear!

This kind of change is very scary but at the same time an opportunity to focus on you and think about what you want going forward. My ex walked out on me 8 years ago with no explanation. Basically took his things and left, never to be seen again. We were together for 12 years and married for 3. Can honestly say I wasn’t sad the relationship was over, but it took me many years to get over the way he just walked away and didn’t look back. I found it hard to get closure for a while but was happier without him in my life. It gave me time to think about what I want in a partner and what kind of behaviour I just won’t tolerate going forward. I was always independent but being single gave me that opportunity to really think about what I want in life, including who I include in it. The loneliness can be hard but important to talk about how you’re feeling with those closest to you. Hope you feel brighter soon. It really does get better

My thoughts go out to those in pain, I hope with every passing day life gets a little easier for you.

Am also no stranger to loss of a relationship and the grief of missing that person.

Hopefully you manage to find something to smile about everyday. I have an app on my phone called ‘One second everyday’. (1SE) A free app that allows you to take a picture/video everyday over the whole year. The video diary allows you to make a meaningful movie of your life and the things that make you smile. It can have a positive impact on your whole day, as it can help you to see things differently.

At the end of the year it helps to see what you have achieved.

I left my husband after 25 years, it was a difficult decision but I had lost my identity and needed to find myself. It has been a hard journey but a welcome one. I've learnt so much about myself, things happen for a reason and your path has taken a new direction, embrace it.

I was married/relationship for nearly 30 years she was a very controlling woman and I never really had a life so after some time I realised I hadn't loved her for some time so I got out. I think of all the bad times with her witch was plenty full and that helps me a lot. It does take time but things do get better. I also say to myself (it doesn't matter) and that helps as well. Stay strong and look after yourself. There are some lovely people out there that will help you so don't think you are alone.

Do you think he could have picked up on this, or was his lack of interest in your relationship already a thing before you met your friend?

Either way whatever his motivation or lack of you have a new life to look forward to. Chin up, it can feel empty and frightening but if you can envisage a bright future it will more than likely happen as you grab new opportunities.

Alot going on here with.us shows with our verification we are actually more friends meeting.for.coffee helping each other talk about our relationships than using fab. "

But you're still on a swinging site with a couple profile. Friends or otherwise. Maybe he found out.

It may seem shit now but it sounds like it will be for the best in the long run. Look for a lovely new house and make plans for the future.

Its hard. You had a frame of reference for life and now it has changed.

It takes a while but eventually each day gets easier.

Then you have some fun and realise you don't feel as sad.

Then, one day, you wonder what the bloody hell you were doing with them anyway.

But each journey starts with the first step. You need to take to begin that journey away from now to then.

Theres a whole raft of emotions one of relief one of sadness one of loneliness that all go through your mind

Ultimately though for myself it has been one of the most liberating feelings going from being generally unhappy to ending up with a smile on my face ...most days at least

Tough one. Feel your pain. Been single again for 7 years after being together for 17 years. You'll lose weight and probably go grey (maybe just me). Self care is important. Don't jump into a new relationship as it'll end badly, as you'll crave companionship. Stay calm. It will be OK, even though you'll feel like shit.

Split of with GF of 6yrs about 1yr & half now. The spark was just gone & felt like living with a housemate with mood swings

When decided 'enough' & we split I've done great since.

I think took too long cause didn't wanna hurt her feelings, but had to let her go both our own good. Change can be scary, but it's better than being trapped in a dead relationships that leads to resentment

Would be hard to contemplate being alone after 49 years. You are here and have a Fwb so I guess you knew things could go belly up . At least you have someone and are of an age where you still could get out and meet people.

As long as you can manage bills and don’t lose your home I guess it opens many doors for you in the future . Spring is coming clubs and socials are happening get out and have some fun .

I've been single now for almost 3 years. The first time in my adult life.

Its been scary, an eye opener, fun, interesting, hard, but mostly really empowering to me personally, yes sometimes I am lonely, I'd love a hug from someone who cares when I've had a shitty work day, or kids have upset me. But there isn't anyone , so that's OK.

I love that I don't have to pretend that things are ok, I love that any decision is mine , my bed is my bed, and most of all, I love that I can do it, I can keep myself, my kids, my dogs happy for the most part.

Its far from perfect, and things crop up, but on the whole I feel a whole new level of calm I never have before.

I wouldn't choose to be single forever , I have too much love to give and I would like to be someone's someone one day. But for now, I'm pretty damned happy.

Yes, it may be scary and frightening , but embrace it, and be happy x

Got to say, I didn't feel empowered for the first two years, just miserable and sad, filled with a longing for her to return. But she'd decided to want to pretend to be a teenager again, although that ended badly for her.

"So after 17 yrs in a relationship my partner walked away saying he has no.feelings for me . How did you find it to be single again after q long time with same person as its scary the hell out of me"

Male half speaking here.

I split up with my ex after an 18 year monogamous relationship in November 2019. After going through the grieving process I decided to get back to being involved in swinging.

Unfortunately Covid had arrived so I had to be patient. I had my first meet on the 8th of May last year. That lady is now my swinging partner and we have lots of great swinging friends and playmates.

Being single again was scary and it took me a while to adjust. But I'm now happier than I've been in years and I love my new found independence.

Sometimes I still think of my ex but I tend to remember the years when we were happy together. Sadly, we grew apart but good memories remain and always will.

But things change. People change. Sometimes partners go in different directions and then it's time to let go. That's what we did.

You'll be ok. Give yourself time to process what you've been through and to begin to adapt to your new reality.

Feel free to PM me if you'd like to chat.

Dave x

Ensure that you add in good support for yourself, even if you're not sure what you need, some of the time.

I struggled after mine finished, partly to become me, as a single person, not half of a couple. Find people to hang out with, minus any pressure, others who you can pour your heart out to if you need to and others to potentially let your hair down with etc.

Take things slowly and without pressure

Hi OP, I lost y wife to cancer 4 years ago in a very short period after 30 years. It was completely unexpected and I was lonely but not wanting any relationship for a while. I found this site and got chatting on forums and chat and that opened things up to talking without any physical contact - it made a huge difference and whilst there are obviously still many memories I've moved on. I'm sure you will experience similar things but remember talking does help - even online where sometimes you can be more open

so sorry to hear that happened to you and all the others here

I can't say it's happened to me

although I was widowed after 40 years with the same man, so the sense of "what the heck do I do now?" has hit me.

My advice is to be uber-kind to yourself... rest properly, eat properly, drink fluids properly (pref not vast amounts of booze tho) take lush baths or showers, moisturize your skin with good quality products,

go to the places your fancy takes you, find what makes you smile, good music? fab films, funny comedy...

indulge indulge indulge, pamper pamper pamper... whatever it takes to love yourself better.

I went for counselling too.

Turns out I was looking to somebody else to provide me with my happy, and I should have looked to myself for that. Once I realized it, things changed for me.

I learned how to choose to feel happy not miserable every morning.

I literally squeeze the joy out of every day now.

Might not feel like it now, but taking your life back into your own hands can become a very liberating time of it when a long term relationship ends.

How can you possibly know the truth of what happens between two people? You know nothing.

"

So after 17 yrs in a relationship my partner walked away saying he has no.feelings for me . How did you find it to be single again after q long time with same person as its scary the hell out of me"

So, you've had a secret couples account with another man for over a year, and you mentioned that when you saw your ex, he blanked you?

I don't know how to put this without sounding like a bitch, but I don't really understand why you are looking for sympathy. And before anyone has a pop at me, I did the same- hubby was unfaithful throughout our 29 year marriage so I joined Fab- he found out & started divorce proceedings, trashing me to everyone we knew without disclosing his own transgressions, even to our 17 year old child.

I'll tell you what I did- I owned it.

I didn't cry, complain or look for sympathy, because despite his actions, I didn't deserve it!!

The reason my husband got suspicious, was because my demeanour changed. I suspect yours also felt a shift in the relationship.

You just have to own this- you aren't blameless & yes, it's a shock & starting over is tough but you will do it.

You have to take a share in this breakup because however you believed you felt about him, your feelings & loyalties were divided.

I hope you take this in the way it’s meant- good luck to you.

That should have read my 20 year marriage, not 29!

Exactly that, nobody knows except them. However it isn't him posting from an established couples account, other half of whom is not a partner.

A man would be roasted. As ever. Of course it's always a Mans fault

I'm not sure that's what's been the intent of all the comments - to blame the man? I empathised with starting afresh after a long relationship and I've seen others do the same.

I don't think anyone's blamed him-it looks like people naturally had a sympathetic response until a few more details were divulged..the point was made that if a man had posted this, he would have been instantly crucified, given the circumstances!!!

It's better to be lonely and single rather than being lonely in a relationship...

We're all condishined to think that being in a relationship is the normal thing to do. Society and all that

"I'm glad he left you op. You haven't exactly been a good wife what do you expect.

I haven't been a good partner .oh ok so staying with him after he had an affair because I loved him, him being £30000 in debt but staying with him , not touching me for 6 yrs not even a kiss . And I've met 4 people off here with p in 4 years n other times with p is meeting for cups of coffee or a lunch . Yes I wanted to be touched n wanted but I also loved my partner n I stayed hoping he.would change n start wanting me . You can ask the ones I chat with on here alot of the time I'm on here purely for chats . "

You began this with the following: "So after 17 yrs in a relationship my partner walked away saying he has no.feelings for me . How did you find it to be single again after q long time with same person as its scary the hell out of me".

You have a swinging partner he wasn't aware of, he had affairs and all the other problems you have now put on the table. I feel this has been waiting to happen for sometime.. Are you really surprised your relationship is over?

It doesn't sound like this relationship was happy at all. You were obviously miserable enough to play without permission on Fab...no judgements from me, but you have played a part in it's demise. It sounds as if you've had an escape from a nightmare. Now you can do what you want without sneaking around. Hopefully you'll see this as a positive sometime soon.
