Today, my husband of five years told me he's leaving me and will be gone when I return from Iraq. When I told him I love him and asked him not to go, he said he won't file divorce papers just yet, but he's moving out-of-state because "we need time apart." I've been gone for most of the year. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got back from an 8-month deployment ready for relaxation and lots of sex with my husband. He said he’s come to realise he likes living alone, didn’t miss me much, and hasn’t been looking forward to me coming home. He gave me divorce papers and kicked me out to go sleep in a hotel. FML
Today, it's been one year since my husband moved six states away for his job. The plan was for me to stay behind until I found a job, but I still haven't in all this time. I can just feel the distance growing between us. FML
Today, my husband told me he no longer loves me and is moving out. It's also our 13th wedding anniversary. FML

Today, my girlfriend of six months dumped me over the phone. I'm in the military and recently had to move away to another fort. We'd agreed that we would try to make long distance work. I'd even offered to buy a plane ticket to come see her each weekend. I've been gone less than two weeks. FML
Today, my five year-old had to break the news to me that my husband was leaving me for someone else. FML

You need to hurry up and divorce him ASAP - you can't fix douchebag, and if you convince him not to leave you now, he'll probably just wind up hanging around for a few for more years before he really does leave you, except by then you'll have been married long enough for him to be entitled to a percentage of your retirement that you're earning in Iraq right now.

I just want to thank you for your service. It means a lot to me, and other Americans as well. I am so sorry that your husband left you. He shouldn't have left, especially since you are over there to protect him. I would say you are better off without him, but you must love him a lot so it is hard on you. I know sorry doesn't make it any less hard, but it may help a little. Thank you for serving our country, and keep your head held high because somewhere, someone is writing your love story.

And? I'm pretty sure he doesn't mean it in a physical way, but in the way asking himself if you're the one he wants to spend the rest of his life with. People need to get over it and stop marrying so frivolously .
