Hi Sweetie,

I think the above is not only normal, but in way, a good thing. It seems that Mitch was, at one point, a different man. I don't think you could be completely wrong about that, not for so many years. Now that he's changed - so drastically and (relatively) quickly - it will take a while for your heart to accept that.

The way he is acting now is v. similar to the way my XH is: he is only thinking of himself. I think Ellie's right, and he's realizing how expensive D really is, how is lifestyle is now being affected. Well, too bad for him.

I know that you will get legal advice, and I know that you will get through this, but I just wanted to let you know that you are NOT an idiot or crazy or lazy or any other nasty thing - you are a true gem.

Love,Nicola
