All of this has completely changed me.  I feel like I have nothing to offer my H or anyone else if we divorce.  I used to be so caring and giving.  I would bend over backwards to help anyone even if I knew they were taking me for granted or taking advantage of me.  I would try help anyone if I thought I could.  I feel cold.  I feel hard.  I don't like who I am now. 

I feel so lost, so alone, depressed.  I hate this.  I regret my whole life.  I've said it a hundred times and I'll say it again...if life is supposed to be such a gift, why isn't it worth living?

Hi HopelesslyDesperate,

I'm getting a bit dizzy on this roller-coaster.

I must, indeed, be getting old if my crackly grandmotherly voice wants to say, "Young people these days think that everything's supposed to come easy, but in my day we knew that anything worth having was worth working for."  *trying to pull that granny hat off...tug...tugggg...pop*

I understand that you are hurting, very confused, have had dreams and fantasies shattered, and are scared to death.  But Jesus IS there for you.  As a believer, your life is Christ, and Christ is a precious gift, but even being His will not exempt you from the troubles of this world.  "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace.  In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer;   I have overcome the world."  John 16:33  KJV

Heavenly Father, I pray that you would warm and soften HD's heart and mind, and guard them from the enemy.  I ask that you would so flood her with your gracious love that she would relinquish all of her fears to you, that you would rekindle her faith and hope.  In Jesus name, amen.

Hi HD

I feel your pain. I too am stuck in this odd place where I don't seem like me anymore. I have always been loving and comforting, but right now I feel cold and hard, just as you described it. I just keep praying for my Lord to change how I'm feeling and to allow me to open back up somehow. I think it is a protection we put on our hearts that wants to harden us against further pain.

I wish I had some great solution for us all, but in the meantime, it helps me to know that at least someone out there really gets where I am and how I'm feeling, although I hate to think of all of the women out there in this kind of pain. I'll be praying for you. I pray for you to have some peace today.
