My husband left me for a man-17 years ago. I am still not through grieving.
by L. Haney
One day, out of the blue, he said he didn't love me anymore and he was leaving. No signs, no warning, no clues. I was beyond devastated. When he talked to me a few days later, after I tried to locate him, he told me that my husband had died and he was someone else. I cried every day for a year. I had to sell most all of my possessions to get enough money to move, as I couldn't afford the townhouse we had. He took the truck we shared, so I had no transportation. We had been in this new town for only 3 months and I had been on my new job for 6 weeks. I loved our old town, our old home and my old job. Time passed by and I found out he left me for a man. Silly me still kept thinking he would come back to me. Years went by and I found someone else who wanted to marry me. He is wonderful, but after the hurt I experienced, I will never give my heart 100% to anyone. Today, 17 years later, I still love him. My current husband knows how I feel. As far as the grieving process, I have never gotten mad. He has gotten married recently, to a man, and I'm still not mad. I need to find a way to get angry and finally let go.
