My wife left me. What should I do?
We have been married for 29 years when my wife told me that she’d met someone else, she doesn’t love me and that she is leaving me. I am now 66 years old and I am feeling lost. My wife was my entire life. I don’t have too many friends either. What should I do besides being positive and confident?

If you have been taken by surprise with the news that she was leaving you, it means that something was already missing in your relationship and if you want to embark on this life change you must think about what was missing. Take this crisis in your life as a possibility to grow. If you can’t be confident and positive as you mentioned in your question, I can tell you that you are still yearning for your wife. This is normal but if you want to move on, you might need some professional therapy to sort out your feelings. If you think it through enough, you will reveal some information that will allow you to move on.
Before starting a new love relationship, make some friends with the help of your work or hobbies. You need to pull yourself together and create a new life for you. Don’t expect a woman to come and do that for you.
