I (32F) married my husband (33M) 6 years ago. We dated for 12 years. We started dating when we were teenagers and were together ever since. Our marriage was happy for a while, but two years ago I discovered that he was in an affair with one of his colleagues. He wanted to work things out. I left for a week, to think about it and I returned home to tell him I wanted a divorce. <br><br>Everybody just assumed he’d do anything to keep his marriage together, but he didn’t. He agreed. He agreed to buy me out of the house we shared, and asked me to stay in the marital home until I could get a new place. Two days later, he left the home, moved in with his parents and got involved with some other woman. One he wants to marry. <br><br>Yes, he wants to marry another woman before we are even divorced. Two years have passed and we are now finally getting divorced. <br><br>Our divorce took so long because he would not agree to let me keep the house, and wanted to find some way to make it “fair”. I don’t know what he had done, but it was a long, messy process. <br><br>So now, he is going to marry another woman before our divorce is even finalized. As far as I’m aware, he only “dated” her for 8 months. How can he do that? <br><br>Im just really hurt and angry about this. I loved this guy my whole life. Even after I found out he’d cheated on me, I was willing to work on the marriage. <br><br>He grew my little girl crush into a deep love for him and then he was just gone. <br><br>I guess I’m just hurt. Idk if he is trying to hurt me or if he’s just enjoying watching me hurt but he keeps bragging about how great his new life will be and how much happier he will be, and it hurts. <br><br>I blocked him on social media, after he posted a photo of some woman holding a ring. <br><br>I don’t love him anymore. Hearing how happy he’s going to find with “an amazing woman” or “a perfect soulmate” is unheard of hurtful. I’m the perfect soulmate. I’m the only one for him. <br><br>We have some disagreements about some aspects of the divorce, but I think I need to know if there is some way to get him to find some empathy for me. I don’t even think that he wants to hurt me. Idk if he just doesn’t care or he’s just unheard of self-absorbed.<br><br>What can I do to get him to have some empathy for me?
