Lightbulb How do you tell?

How do you tell your husband of 25 years that you want a separation, and that you do not care for him anymore?

Wow, that`s a tough one. Are you sure your not just in a rut? Maybe you should try to date again like when you first met before you decide you don`t love him anymore.

I think that would be extremely difficult to do; however, if one feels that way about her husband, I believe they should both sit down and have a calm conversation where the wife explains to the husband her reasons for wanting to end this relationship. Prior to doing this though, perhaps it would be better to take a while to really ponder on this decision. Is there any way to salvage this relationship? Is the decision final? If the answers that come are solid and there is no doubt, then regardless of how you tell the other person, it will have a huge impact nonetheless.

I am sorry to hear about the situation.

I would advice to sit down and talk to him.
Chances are he feels the same way and has been
afraid to tell you himself. In which case it becomes
easy and both of you can part ways amicably
especially if you don't have young dependant children

why you want to take such a rude and bad decision, trust me its rude.

Better idea is to sit with your husband and discuss the matter but if nothing is working then simply use straight words rather then decorating talk and revolving around topic because hints never work for men.

Is that for real? I hope it isn't. Well, if you are sure with your decision then, you really should tell him. However, make sure that the time and place is right. Discuss your concerns with him and be honest. If he would be asking for a second chance, I think you should give it a try.
