How long were you "in limbo"?
It sucks.
My H has told me and many many others his worst fear is being alone. I didn't leave because I want to punish him. I even thought about the fact that instead of missing me he'd go and find someone else.
I did this because I need some stinking rehab and being in our marital house without him just freakin' blew.
These last three nights with him there were wonderful. Granted, we slept in different rooms, but it was still comfortable, like we used to be.
I'm not afraid of hard and difficult roads but it sure as hell makes it easier if you know what the prize is at the end of the road and no one, not even him I think, can tell me what is at the end of this one.
