LMNW, you sound as if you are making the right moves.
It is interesting that you talk about education, etc.. I think my H's ultimate issue was that he had not accomplished something work-wise that he really wanted to accomplish.
It has now happened and I am wondering if that might change things. I am wondering if he will realize that the universe has not stopped because of this achievement.
If I were assessing his priorities from my perspective, they would be in this order:
-His feelings -His work -Rescuing his girlfriend -Time to himself -Maybe our D. Maybe. -Maybe his family. Maybe. -Cleaning the toliet -Watching TV -Insert about 100 items here -Me
