I don't know exactly why they have split up, but I do know there is a 4 year old child involved, & at first he was saying he didn't even like to go to pick up his child, because of glaring looks he would get from her, which broke my heart, because I can't see any father not wanting to pick his child up just because of 'glaring looks' he receives from his wife. Honestly, I really thought that was a lame excuse. Now he seems to be seeing his child more frequently, which is good. But when we talk again, I will bring up more about his situation. And tell him honestly how I feel. Also, my friend told me that he said he will get a divorce when he finds the right person, which I believe the basis for his divorce should not be when he finds somebody else, if it's not working out, why not do it now? Maybe he just wants his cake & to eat it too, or feels more secure letting go of one relationship when another one comes along, so that he will not have to be alone or something.
