I know hon, my H wouldnt' look me in the eye for a long long time. Also remember, that in order to leave they have to give themselves excuses and make you the bad guy in his head so that what he's doing doesnt' seem so bad.

He also, from time to time, might push your buttons, to justify his leaving "aha! she is getting mad, that's why I left" etc etc. Be calm, always mind the tone of your voice, be pleasant, treat him as you'd treat an acquantaince who came for dinner.

I also didnt' think I could put up with his leaving for more than 2-3 months, I ended up waiting 8.
It's a long road, so please dont' hold your breath. Find the happy independant person you were before you met him or married him. Let him find a happy woman, not a begging sad wretched soul hanging on his arm.
