When we first met and early on in our marriage I used to let her lean on me. But through the years I leaned on her more and more. I became totally dependent on her.

Now the real test of my life begins. She won't be there anymore at least for a long time. Now everything rides on me to succeed and find happiness.

A friend of mine had his W leave him. He played hard ball with her. He told her to return the car that he bought her. One night he was at a bar with her and her friend and they wanted to come over to his hot tub and he said no. He went to strip clubs for his enjoyment while she was gone. Then just recently she called and told him she made a mistake and wanted to come back and work things out. He told her to get tested for STD's and then they would talk. She did, they talked and are back together.

Amazing. Of course I am not going to any strip clubs and I did give my W a key to my apartment so she could get in if she needed. Maybe I should ask for the key back.

This week won't be as hard since I have the kids. But next week will be the real test of me being alone for a week.

Today I have more stuff to move.
