JTB and Mach, thanks so very much for advice.

I am trying to understand what path H is on but doesn`t that mean having to figure whether he`s going through mid life crisis or not?

I think I`m doing 180 too-at least in the sense of acting the opposite to what he`d expect-I`m happy,relaxed (and genuinely so) instead of being angry and tense as I would have been before. But I may have to review that as he`s more withdrawn, if anything.

What resources are you referring too? I really want to get my hands on all I can interms of improving my strategy, and making the most of this situation.

I`d love to know too, if there`s anyone out there willing to share their exeperience of turning things around while living separately in the same house.

I`d been out to dinner with a few girlfriends and thoroughly enjoyed myself. The kids were in bed when I got home-as was H. I couldn`t help thinking of all my gfs going home to their welcoming husbands while I just have this great big lonely gap. Yeah, self pity, saddo moment I shouldn`t have indulged in I know. But damn, its so so hard not to at times especially when I lose hope of getting a solution to this.

Thanks for listening!
