Hugs to you 2IL! I suspect your H wants to drag you down. My H is at the lark as well-sulking cos his mother says he has to stay-yeah great, I`m only here with you cos I have to be here. Don`t get any notion that I love or care for you.
Leave `em to stew in their own hurt. Detach. Detach. Detach. The old game is they get angry/demanding/whatever you jump.You`ve gotta stop jumping to his moods and get out there and don`t let summer pass you by. Make 09 Happy Memory Time for you and the kids.
Only you can make you happy.
Only himself can make your H happy.
It`ll; probably take a very long time for him to learn that lesson. Just don`t get into the pit with him.
That`s where I`m at at the moment and no, its not easy but the less I watch him the easier it gets.
