Out of the Abyss...

I think he would like to quit his job, he said he has tried to quit in the past and just couldn't get the words out. Quitting a job is tough. Even when I was glad to quit a job it was tough for me to do that. It is even worse when you love your job and don't want to leave it, but have to because of the pressures there. I'm going to suggest to H that he either see about taking a leave of absence due to health reasons, or write a resignation letter and hand that over to his boss. Perhaps if he writes the letter and just hands it to his boss and doesn't have to verbally say the words "I quit" or "I'm leaving" it will be easier. His boss can read the letter with H in the room and they can discuss it. His boss (thanks to me calling him when bomb 1 was dropped in June 06 and I freaked out) is well aware of the relationship between the two of them. All of their coworkers know...I don't understand how two people can continue an adulterous affair knowing that everyone else knows. Are affairs just THAT widely accepted in this day and age??

Anyway, I'm going to mention both options to h today (we have a four hour drive to make today - that will be interesting) and just let him think about them. I'm hoping that if he can see one of the two options as viable he take one...
