MLJ, I read your reference to the "Skank" and it made me smile. That's what I call the ow in my sitch.
Hold your head up proud and remember to keep breathing. Don't let thoughts of what your H may have done while you were gone spoil the happy thoughts of your good times on vacation.
You cannot control what he does. These guys in MLC seem to mostly follow the same script in thought and action. Continue to live your life being the best that you can be. Nothing that you can do will fix what is wrong with him right now. This is something that is "all his" and if you can "let go" and allow him to own it, wallow in it and wear it, you will feel a lot better.
It is not fun to live with a MLCer, but you are doing a great job and all of us reading are thinking of you.
Most of us are about as happy as we make up our minds to be.
