Default Re: weight loss and divorce

You say he is a great guy and a good friend. That is a very good place to start. I would imagine that since you have been married there has been very little time for you and him to be just the two of you. Baby coming along and then your poor opinion of yourself joing the family and then of course your depression. Really you have had no time to get to find any fun in your relationship it has been hard and heavy.

Before you decide to start fresh give this guy a second chance. First you need to communicate to him how you feel. Men haven't a clue, you can be so unhappy and hubby just doesn't even notice, pretend he is just a little dumb and explain everything to him. He may well come up with some surprises.

I agree that an unhappy relationship is not something you should waste your life on. However, give it a try so that you know that you did. Very few people have the fortunate experience of having a perfect partnership but a good friend is a very large beginning you can fall in love with a friend.

Whatever happens best of everything to you, don't make any important decisions until you have your depression sorted out. The two of you have been through quite a lot in these few years and you have been through it together.
