[quote=Anonymous]DH here.   Can't sleep, separated and going through divorce.  Mid 50s,  Children out of the house.   I should be shouting from the rooftops but I am just feel lonely and awful.  I have lost many friends and relationships over the years while spiraling down in this marriage.  Did not maintain contact, just trying to get through the day with work to pay the bills.   And now I can count my good friends on one hand.   My DW has been in her own world for so long I worry about her.   But she makes no effort.  She has her own demons that I helped, I really did but she ultimately didnt want help.  Drinking those demons was better to her than working on a marriage.

For those that have been thru this, help me see the light at the end of the tunnel?   do you make meaningful friends again that you love and who would have your back?   have you found a partner that gives you the butterflies in the stomach and nervousness in your mind that feels so right, that you love like you loved when you were younger?   or is that hope gone forever.  It sure feels like it right now.

And then watching all the happy acquaintances on facebook is unbearable.   I feel stupid.  I feel like a failure.

 you find ten years have got behind you. 
No one told you when to run, 
you missed the starting gun. [/i][/u][/quote]
