I am a man of 35, from UK. In early 2006 i met a colombian woman online ( through online dating). My marriage had broken down and this woman was really caring and loving. I went to see her and we were right for each other. She understood me etc whereas before my wife had always been difficult, cold and non affectionate and we were not right for each other. At the same time, it was difficult because i had a young child with my wife and i was feeling guilty that our marriage was breaking ( with the young child) and i wasnt living with my wife. My girlfriend understood the situation and was supportive. Anyway, i went to live in colombia on 3 ocassions but i found it difficult to settle there. In February 2008 i returned to the UK and i noticed my girlfriend had started to change, she was saying i wasnt in contact enough and she kept saying i had to change thingss abvout myself. Then, we argued and she didnt contact me. When i contacted her again in March 2008 she said she was tired of me and she didnt want me ( after 2.5 years of relationship). I was devastated. I had invested alot of my feelings into her and i really love her. She said she didnt believe i loved her but really it felt like she was looking to blame many things on me. I then asked her if she had found someone else and she said " i like someone and he likes me, we are talking......im being cautious". I fell to pieces because i realised she was trying something else ( and maybe with someone she met online). I felt a fool. She didnt seem interested to talk more and i havent heard from her again. For me she was the love of my life and i am having massive problems coming to terms with it, even though 6 months have passed. Ive fallen into a big depession and feel totally lonely. My job is in trouble ( not because of this) and really i feel my life is over at 35 ! I struggle to get out of bed in the morning and i have no motivation. I cant stop thinking about her and not seeing beyond what we had together. Im convinced we would have been together forever. I have never felt at such a dead end in my life before. I am still married ( in law, nothing more) but i know that i have to get a divorce but im so emotionally exhausted and stuck on my ex. She was the one for me. Ive been feeling terrible depressed and genuinely suicidal ( although no one who knows me would know i feel suicidal)

  1. Poor you...i know how this feeling affects  you and I know its so easy to make suggestions about getting on with your life..If you feel this desperate you really need to seek some medical help..soon....or..e-mail me if you need someone who knows nothing about you other than what they read...to chat to...Try and concentrate on your child..go to places where you will  find other parents to chat to..seriously...if you feel like a chat anytime...feel free...


  2. A young child should be your motivation. Be the best Daddy you can be and make as much effort as possible to spend time with him/her, if you relationship with your ex allows.

    Good luck

  3. i agree with the other person you're son should be your motivation let him know you're there for him and he's there for you!

    also try to develop a plan!

    prehaps go away on holiday or something somewhere that will take your mind off of everything then try to become more organized, if you get ontop of things at work that'll help to motivate you and it'll be another thing that you won't have to worry about, that could be your motivation =]

    also suicide is not the answer!

    suicide is just an easy option out and think of everything you'd be missing!

    think of how your son would feel!

    he needs you!

    also one day you'll find the right person!

    but yeah there's gonna be some hicups on the way but you'll get there eventually dude! it might just take some time, and although things seem pretty crappy now, they can only get better =]

    it's all part of life!

    good luck
