ALJ-
Wow...I SO feel your pain as I know we all do here. I am in a similar situation with my H telling me that he loves me but is not in love...that he just needs to be honest about his feelings and has just been unhappy for awhile. Like you, I know we have some issues but I never EVER thought it was this bad...and trust me it is horrible. My H has been out of the house a little over a month now...I feel one day I am strong and the next a wreck. Today was one of those days I was a wreck. There is not alot I can say to make you feel better other than what I feel about husbands who just up and walk away because they are NOT happy....especially when there are young children to be taken care of...and that is that there is definately something wrong with THEM....not us. There are people who make bad decisions and if you ask me there is no other way to justify leaving your children without giving the M the 100% effort it deserves...that the kids deserve. I feel like it is so unfair for the kids and for the LBS to be given a bomb, have to deal with that AND have to remain sane for the sake of the kids...while the WAS gets to run. And run they do. I just wanted to commiserate...this is all new to me too. Message me anytime and just as this board is designed for, maybe we can help each other thru these dark days. Good luck to you...
