I'm sure he is retreating to an extent. But his disregard for our vows, the commitment of marriage troubles me an extreme amount. How can I trust that the next time it doesn't feel good to him he won't bolt? I know how people who have it worse than us get through it: it's called commitment. His "make up" doesn't allow him to stay through the rough times and there will be more rough times. Together is not his fashion.
I don't think I can live with that.
