The week after that, he invited me to drive out of town together so we could visit my 93- year-old stepmother for the day. We decided to meet again a month later, and that time was great we laughed and reminisced. I let him lead the conversation and had no preconceived expectations. We were both so nervous but it went well. He wanted to break the ice so it wouldn’t be awkward at our son’s wedding. Our oldest son is getting married soon, and in the spirit of that upcoming occasion, my ex-husband reached out to me several months ago and invited me to meet for coffee. Except for seeing him at our youngest son's graduation 4 and a half years ago, and the occasional text message greetings on birthdays or Christmas, my ex hasn’t wanted any contact with me over these past seven years since we broke up. I waited so long to make the final move because even though he showed no interest in strengthening our marriage, I knew he would be devastated if I left him, and he was.

I’m an affectionate person, but he would never touch me or hold me unless he wanted to have sex.Īfter our youngest son was away at college I realized I’d had enough of our lack of connection, and I decided to divorce him. I tried to find activities we could do together, but he always turned me down. I begged him to go to counseling with me but he wouldn’t, so I went alone. He pursued many outdoor hobbies without me, he retired early and spent more and more time at a second house we bought at the beach. He was a good provider, responsible with our finances and actively involved with our 3 sons.īut the second half of our marriage was miserable for me because my husband was emotionally cold. I was married for 30 years to a man who was basically a good guy. I'm a 62-year-old divorced woman and have been single for seven years. This episode was originally published on August 26th, 2016.
