I still think my xh life is somewhat in limbo, but I've figured out that my own doesn't have to be. When I figured out that I could respect myself and what I could accomplish on my own, and not rely on xhs opinion, it was very, very freeing.


Wow. Yes, this is where my xH and I are.

You can get there too TOH, without getting divorced.

The family, the farm, etc. I promise, that will all work out in time..regardless of what decisions are made. You will survive, whether your marriage remains intact or not.


This is true too. And remember any 'decision' your H makes without you (money, house, farm, etc) isn't permanent. Anything can be 'undone'. And you WILL survive no matter what!
