Lea, you are starting to get it. You need to imagine and envision a life without him. Doesn't mean you WANT that life. but you need to imagine it and start moving that way. This is what your husband is asking you to do. And you don't have much choice.
The track record for begging and pleading is poor. It won't work. he has thought about this a great deal, and though it does not make sense to you, it does make sense to him, in his current state. Fighting him will only push him away more strongly.
Quote:
Is this DBing or just giving up? Not too sure...
Yes!
Giving up on the battle, but not giving up on your marriage. giving up on the arguments, but not on the love and kindness. Giving up on the conflict, but not on your firm principles that tell you marriage is worth saving, marriage is valuable and good and important.
