It seemed like it went on forever. I hated that part. I didn't know what the end was going to hold for us.
I think we were apart around 18 months. He had little or no contact from 8/05 till 4/06, if I remember correctly. Then he started his coming home and leaving numerous times. When he would leave he stopped the contact again. I got pretty good at recognizing the patterns he was displaying in his moods and actions so I knew it was coming.
