someone who doesn't remind him of his failings, someone he can be this new, good man to

Well, my stbx tried this stragety when we separated back in in 05, he had all the time he wanted, he had no kids around, and a cc...and still, you can't put up a front for ever, eventually his true nature showed up, he couldn't put up a show forever.

So, no, I dont' think your H is now 100% healthy and all will go great, it never pays to run away and try to start anew if you never fixed the original problem to begin with.

I had the youth of him

I was just thinking of this since yesterday, but on a different angle. I had him at his best, at his peak, the best years of his life when he was healthy and young, no one will ever, not even him, take that away! ever. THe new person my H is, I want no part of, his outer shell reminds me of that good man he was, but that's all it is , a shell, the good part is gone.
