Keep the 2x4's coming. I know that is exactly what I need.

MC,you are exactly correct in assuming that I would not want my daughters to be with such a man. So yes, why am I allowing him to treat me like this in front of them? They are both actually to the point that they don't want to see me with him anymore. I think youngest DD still has a little hope, but oldest DD does not want to see it happen. Mind you that she lives with H, but I don't believe there is much respect there for him. Yes, she loves him, but respects him? I don't think so.

I watched Nights in Rodanthe tonight. I won't give away much of the plot, but the lead female character was separated due to her H's adultery. At the beginning of the movie, he comes to pick up the kids and says after 7 months he made a mistake and wants her back. Her friend that she is visiting asks why she would want him back. My daughters watched this movie with me. I'm sure they were thinking the same thing about me.

So I'm trying to figure out how to work it out that I will not ride with H to the ballgame tomorrow night, that is if he goes. Usually we ride together to the away games, but I think I'll see if a couple of DD's friends want to ride with me to keep me company on the way up there. DD has to ride the bus there, but can ride home with us.
