Is he or isn't he cheating?

My husband of 25 years asked me for a divorce on Valentines day, while I was making a dinner for two.
He says we have drifted apart and doesn't want to try to fix things. He wants this over with quick, he claims it will be better that way. The next day he set up an appointment with an lawyer,the next day he got an apartment or himself the next day he moved out now today I'm still searching for answers because I have to go see his lawyer this afternoon.

I asked if there were someone else and he said no. I want to believe that, but everyone I have talked to seems to think there must be for him to want this so bad so fast. he's always been a good husband to me and our children.

My suspicion is there is, because he does go out alone every weekend. Sometimes for a few hours sometimes longer. But every weekend without fail he goes. Other then the weekends he came home everyday from work. No weekend trips, no cell phone calls, no secret talking on the phone, and he doesn't use e-mail (from home).

Does it sound like there is another woman? Why does he want this so fast?

Give him time and a little space, but tell him that after 25 years you should at least have an explanation of why and how long he's been feeling this way. It's hard to discuss things when emotions run high, maybe through his lawyer you can get some anwers. I would wonder why so fast though......  Good luck

It does sound as if there is someone else or at the very least someone else he is interested in becoming involved with.  I can understand him wanting it over quickly if he's certain this is what he wants because it can be so painful.  He may have been wanting this for a long time if he's been going out alone for awhile now.  If this behavior has just started then he may just be confused.  I wouldn't rush through a divorce when you have 25 years invested.  I would give it time to see if things could work out.
