JJ, Thank you for responding to my thoughts, I feel noticed and encouraged. Here is a more troublesome problem I am facing and need advice on. I am working on trying to win H's love back but I am under a time constraint. You see, I am active duty military and I will be going out to sea in October. He has stated that he is only staying in the house between now and Oct. to spare our children and he will leave when I return at Christmas. What can I do between now and Oct or now and Christmas? I feel like I am under more pressure as a result. He is now asking me to seperate our accounts while still living together, i.e. cell phone bills, insurance etc. And I am told he is going to buy a new 'muscle car' but he hasn't told me and when I am out to sea, he will have full access to my financial information and the use of it. HELP, I need some REAL GOOD advice and I hope its positive??
