Wouldn't it be great for him to recover part of the life he so casually tossed away ... starting with his kids. I am glad you would feel positive about that. Please do take it with a grain of salt however as far as him being anywhere near the end of his crisis. I don't think he has shared any sign that there has been any real bottoming out on his part. Maybe just slowing down his spinning.
Just think about the wonderful things you have done for yourself during all this. You mentioned the education and career growth when sharing your last post. You should be very proud. I suspect that deep down your H is also. He just can't take any credit or share in your joys right now. You will have to celebrate enough for the both of you. The new friends in the social club seem like perfect folks to do some of that celebrating with, so party on.
And what a wonderful person your d18 is turning into. What a journey that has been too, and paying off now so well. Be very proud.
