My daughter got home from college on Tuesday. She is 19, and a wonderful girl. Anyway she has been watching old family videos a couple of nights in a row. Wow, the memories that come back are just overwhelming to me. She loves to laugh and see how much they have all changed, but yet stayed the same. It is so hard for me to watch and see my stbx happy and loving to each other. Where did that go?? He tells me he was unhappy for along time, how come I didn't see it? Was this life I lived a fairytale that wasn't real??

HUGS!!!!
Lyn, I often think the same thing. I did not see it either and ex said the same thing - he was not happy for a long time and thought about divorce more than once...WOW I was floored. I have not looked at any old pictures b/c it is too painful to see the life that I loved and not having it now. HUGS AGAIN, my sweet!

I have the same questions. It would be really hard to watch those videos especially this time of the year. All I know is our stbx's will see what they want to see. If they want to look back at only the diffecult and trying times, that's all they will see. I think it's a character flaw. Cup half empty.
I just don't know how someone you thought would be there for better and for worse, can just up and decide it's not what they want anymore. Without any consideration for the other person at all. I still don't understand that.

Lyn,What you had wasn't a fairytale--it was real and wonderful. I think you couldn't see it--because it wasn't there. As your husband changed,he felt the need to change history to support his current needs.
Don't allow anyont to tarnish what you had. Embrace it, know that you were truly lucky to have it, and I know you will find it again. Hang in there!

I ask myself these same questions and I agree with Alone in Utah that it was something real. Something changed along the way and I believe that we will figure out some of the answers to this in time, some of it we may never understand but we'll hopefully learn to let it go.
