Quote: He is also upset that I am getting along so well without him. I asked him if that bothered him, he said yes. I told him that didn't me we didn't miss him.
I think his saying that means something. I've always kind of had the opinion that his issues were more with himself than with you, and this makes me think it more so.
Quote: He was also mad because on Sunday I was busy and we didn't go to Toys R Us together like we talked about.
Quote: That, of course, annoyed him.
Quote: Well, he got upset at my choice of wording, break up the family.
Look how many times he was "upset", "mad", and "annoyed". Which brings me to this.
Quote: He said where he is at now is he isn't happy with the direction his life is going.
No kidding. He isn't happy - but I can't see anywhere from your recent posts that make me think his unhappiness has anything to do with you.
It seems obvious that there is something there in his heart for you.....look, he got what he wanted (a separation) and he is just as miserable, or even more so, now that he has it. And now he's upset because you seem to be doing fine without him??? What did he want you to do - curl up in a little ball and beg and plead???
My point is, Jackie, that I think he loves you. But he doesn't seem to like himself very much.
What to do about it??? I don't know. Maybe getting blunt is something you may need to do. I'm not sure I would go there quite yet though. I think I'd give this separation a little more time.
