The last couple of 'bombs' were emotional, angry ones and the snub time afterwards consisted of the silent treatment and avoidance and lasted 1 week or less.

This time is different... and sadder I think, because there seems to be a quiet dispassionate resignation on his end. Not so much anger, not so much passion, more apathy. I've not reached out this time, physically or emotionally, but am working on GAL while being friendly and civil but not overly so. This time is longer too- it's going on 3 weeks since he told me he'd like me out of the house. [I know that's WAY less than 3 years and maybe I just need to chill]

I'm wondering if he will ever reach out. I'm wondering if this is what it will be. And I'm wondering what I'll do if it is.

And of course underneath it all I am wondering if I really AM responsible for our "worthless" kids and "mistake" marriage.
