I am 55 years old women. I have been married for last 29 years. It was arranged marriage. I am working in Govt. sector. I have a son who is 28 years and married settled abroad. However, my marriage life was not good from the beginning. My husband has physically & mentally abused me several times. As I wanted the relationship, I accepted him. Now, after all trauma, he has felt the house after some fight. This is not the first time when he has left the house. We are not legally separated. I am staying with my father who is 80 years old. I don't want to be a burden to my son or my father. I am having health issues. Now that he has left me and son is far away, what should I do? One of my college friend (only) met me after 31 years. He is also separated and emotionally travelling in the same phase of life for past 10 years. He wants to share rest of his life together. However, due to my past experience, I am unable trust anyone or to forget my past life. I feel very lonely and depressed always. Pl. advice what I should do at this stage of life?

Hello sir, I am 52 years handicapped with a good govt. job. I have been married for 27 years now. My son also married recently and he is in USA. I dont know where to start. Mine was arranged marriage. But my husband and his family cheated us regarding his job. He was jobless after our marriage. I had a son in the first year of our marriage. I stayed with him for only 2 months then I was send to my fathers house for delivery. He never visited me during this time nor he had called me. As he was jobless, I tried hard to build my carrier for sake of my son. I had managed all these years financially. I never received any financial support or emotional support from him past 27 years. We had fought badly accusing each. He will physically abuse me every time. He is addicted to alcohol and watching prone movies. My son once saw his mssg to call girls and other such women in his mobile. I was shocked too. Later I discovered he had many such connections. He had been spending his merger salary for all this self enjoyment and never shared anything for HL or son education. However, I had stayed with him for social security and status. Now I have completed all my duties. My son is safe and far from him. Even after my sons marriage, he behaved violently after consuming alcohol. I am really fed up with him. I have my income and properties. But I have no one to share my emotions as my son also has left and busy with his life in USA. I don't need any physical needs but need emotional support for rest of my life. I am in total depression for all I have undergone for 27 years. I currently having my father who is 80 years with me in the house. My husbands behaviour towards my father is very bad. Now my fathers health is getting affected because of my husbands shouting. I have no other friends or relations to relate to. My health also is getting slowly affected and I my mobility is very much restricted. Sometimes I was having succidal ideas. I have no life goals now. I have achieved all my goals. I have completed all my duties now. What should I do now?
