Husband told me he does not love me anymore

We have been married for 6 years and have 2 kids. Our marriage has been far from healthy for years now. Today my husband told me he does not find me attractive, doesn’t respect me, has no love for me, just is together for the kids. I feel really heart broken. I knew our marriage was not great but instead of telling me maybe we should end things, I thought he would say to try and work on it properly or therapy or something. He just was so blunt. I was in tears and he was literally smirking in my face. What do I do? I don’t work so cannot support myself and the kids financially.

Show your support

Babes, he done you favour. For a man to say that to his wife, and not even want to try it even suggest therapy or anything at all, is beyond me. You deserve way more, and happier life and marriage/relationship. You’ve got this mama, there is no shame in getting benefits, see what you’re entitled too. It may not seem like it now, but you will have a happy ending! Sending positive vibes your way

I also came to my Mum’s earlier today and he has not once checked up on me

There is absolutely no shame in reaching out for financial support. Contact universal credit and they will point you in the right direction, also citizens advice as they often have money vouchers at hand for situations like this!! I know you must be absolutely devastated right now, but honestly by the sounds of him (the way he’s spoken to you as his wife and the mother of his children) you’re clearly better off without him! Those are vile things to say to someone, I hope it hasn’t made you actually feel that way about yourself. He’s the ugly one for opening his mouth like that, what an awful man. Get that child support in place too, he still needs to pay for his kids, this isn’t all on you. Things will work out they’re meant too, but start the ball moving asap in contacting universal credit for support. Sending you love xxx
