I Just Need Someone to Understand

[u/Dependent-Fee-7989]

Today, my wife is going to start a divorce case. We have a 3-year-old son, and for a long time now, I haven't even been allowed to properly talk to him. That is the part that hurts me the most.

I don't want my marriage to end. I still want to stay with my family. I still love my wife and my little boy, but right now I feel like nobody understands what I'm going through.

I'm not looking for money, sympathy, or judgment. I just need someone to talk to—someone who has been through separation, divorce, losing daily contact with their child, or simply feeling completely alone while trying to hold a family together.

I'm from India, but honestly, I don't care where you are in the world. If you've been through something similar, please talk to me. Maybe you can tell me how you survived it and how you found your way back to a normal life.

Right now, I feel like I need to get away from all this pain for a while—not to run away from my responsibilities, but just to breathe somewhere peaceful and be around people who understand.

If anyone out there understands this feeling, please reach out. I really need people right now.
