I am so glad others have had the same feelings. Its a fleeting thought, really, then washed away (like Gypsy said) because of the pain it would cause the girls. My own xH has said (when I tell him to be careful on the bike) "That would be easier for everyone", and has meant it. I don't think he would ever do anything, but the thought has been there for him. I am sure he has also had it about me as well.
broken, you are right, I definately need more detaching. I think about the situation A LOT during the day. I am worse when I am alone, during the day, without the girls.
Funny, yesterday xH pointed out that I don't 'evict' him when I get home from work. He knows he is wrong. He said to wake him and he will leave. I shall do that from now on.
He makes a ton of things easier for me (I actually get shocked when I sit and think about things), but there are some major things he could do as well. Maybe, for whatever reason, he isn't ready to do those things either, huh?
nocode, lol at the corpse of xH following me around. I loved the way you put that into words, but of course around Halloween, I pictured xH's actual corpse (Hollywood movie style of course), following me around the rest of my life, tapping me on the shoulder and saying "Boo!"
