My husband, my soul mate, my best friend for 21 years tells me he doesn't love me anymore because of pmt, because 8 years ago 3 weeks after losing my mum (55) to cancer 2 years after my dad (57) died of cancer too he had to go and see the same consultant who misdiagnosed my dad and because I didn't go and sit in the waiting room to hold his hand after saying how upset I was he had to see that man even though he didn't ask me to go, I would have gone if he told me he needed me but my head was all over the place and he didn't ask, because I said I couldn't bear the though of losing either him or my daughter I wanted to die first and so would not have treatment if I got cancer as I wouldn't want to let him see me suffer never saying that this comment hurt him, all this in his head added up to the fact I must have never loved him and so he said 8 weeks ago he started to doubt his feelings for me so he went and asked his friends, strangers, work colleagues what he should do!! He had a mental breakdown and has now decided he doesn't love me and after disappearing for 4 days sent me a text message telling me he's leaving and I have to find him somewhere to live and sort his finances out because it is all my fault. I love him so much he has told me he is not prepared to try and talk or go for counselling to try and work things out I must accept his decision and I should want him to be happy. I feel my life is over and cannot bear the thought of living without him. I don't know where he is am finding it hard to put a brave face on for my daughter. Please any suggestions or thoughts would help.
