I Need Someone to Talk to Right Now
My name is Rita. I am 40 years old and married for 21 years. My oldest daughter is 21, and the boys 18,8 and 3. I am also overweight.(it matters sometimes in certain situations). I am afrikaans so sorry for spelling. My husband had an affair with my only friend 5 years ago. we lived on farms and after 15 years she was the only friend i ever had. since then my husband not once told me he loved me. I still tell him that i love him,but lately i dont care as much. And i dont want to feel like that. I need tenderness and love and need to feel wanted. For 21 years i have been a housewife. never worked. I am nothing. I am just a mom. My kids make me happy but i have a huge hole in me that only my husband can fill? If someone can understand that? His name is Jaco.
He is very rude to our kids. He lets my 18 year old boy feel worthless. He doesnt care about my daughters future. He will play with the 2 young children when he feels like it and thats once a week for 10min.(still do appreciate that). I cant be father to my kids, i am the mom! For the last 5 years since his affair with my friend(their secretary)...i have had no one whatsoever to talk to! Jaco and i sleep together but we dont touch each other. the only sign of affection is in the morning on his way to work when i get a peck. (and when it misses...thats it!) and when he leaves i just start crying my eyes out!
I dont know anything about his paycheck. I dont get enough money for food. its been the same amount for 4 years. no money for medical or school supplies. no petrolmoney to visit my dad 30 km from me. We dont ever go out! theres no laughing and playing and no fun between us. I try but get rejected. he handles the money and this month was the last straw!! He did the shopping!!! I was not allowed to go in the store even! That was the only thing that still made me feel like one of the normal woman. And he took it away. I cant do this anymore. I need a friend to talk to. I need someone to feel for me. someone who will listen to me and care. My mom died a few years back. My husbands mother....well she is on her sons side. He was not like this before. I want him to be the way he was....and i was overweight then too.
I dont want to wake up anymore with the hope that today is the day he says he loves me! Today ill be kissed.....
i cant anymore. I am too scared to divorce. because he is a chronic liar. I am scared hell lie so i walk away with nothing. And i dont know if i will be able to care for my children alone. I am doing so now, but they are getting a bit much for me. Perhaps its the stress of desicions that need to be made. But i need to feel like a person again for i dont know who i am.
