At least you didn't get stuck with Ed O as your head coach.

Well, When we got married we discussed what we wanted as a far as house, cars etc. Once we decided on those things I told her that in order to get the big house w/ in ground swimming pool and 2 new vehicles, that would have to work a lot of long hours to achieve that.( she has a good job also) So I did. We got the house and the vehicles. Basically setting up to spend the rest of our lives together. Well during that time she said that I wasn't paying her enough attention...go figure. I was at work all the time. I never suspected anything until I went online to make changes to our cellphone plan and noticed a strange number that she was receiving calls and texts from......tons of them. It was 2523 to be exact. So I looked up the number, ended up I knew the guy from a job a few years back. He is married w/kids. So I typed an e-mail and dumped all the texts and calls into a spread sheet and sent it to his wife and asked if she could help me understand why her husband is calling and texting my wife so much. All holy hell broke loose after that. I moved out into a rent house, as far as I know they are now dating. We have an 8 year old boy together and he tells me about "moms boyfriend". This is my second marriage, the first one went pretty much the same way. So, Im done with being married.

This will sound really dumb, but spend less time alone, then.
If you hate being home alone, then stay out of it as long as you can. Maybe the change of scenery will do you some good.
Hell, moving to a new town might not even be a bad idea. Get a job or transfer to a position with lots of travel. All that "new" stimulus could keep your mind off the old memories dragging you down.

Serious answer...become a big brother or do charity work. It will make you feel good about yourself, occupy your time/mind and gives back to the community. Get counseling as well.

Also, I forgot to mention - if you're religious, spend more time working on that part of yourself. If you're a Buddhist, become a better Buddhist. If you're a mormon, become a better mormon.
If you're a Muslim, convert to Christianity and become a better Christian. Etc..

As someone else suggested, get a pet.

That sucks. Sounds like you got a bad picker.

Damn, that's tough. Props to you for getting thru something like that.

It will get better. It'll get worse before it gets better but it'll get better. Chin up.

That's not running. It's getting a fresh start and new perspective.

you can't just show up emotionally for your wife in 25 years when house and cars are paid off dude and think you're going to drink mojitos and be happy.

Yea, you right, I'm 45 years old so I'm done picking. I've dated a couple of women since and that's the first thing they want to do is get married. I had one of them tell me on the second date that if I have no intentions of marriage then we should end it now. So, I got up and left. lol

See pecker? You're advice is actually helpful when you don't frame it as a way to slay pussy.

There's a difference between running away from your problems, and retreating to regroup.
If you're strong enough to face your problems, and you don't... then you're running away from your problems.
The OP is posting for advice because he's having trouble sitting by himself in his own home. Think about that.
He needs to do what it takes to survive to fight again one day. Sometimes that means leaving, recovering, improving, then overcoming.
If you're in a place, and when you look around, all you see are things that remind you of bad things, then you're in the wrong place. Find a new place.
