Look, What he is doing to you (not really as much as it is for himself ) is paled in comparison to what YOU are doing to you.
If you can do this, think of it this way.....
This thing, this MLC, or whatever we call it is...
Our spouses go through this thing, and it seems to turn our world upside down in a negative pattern.
What we don't see is that it can turn our world upside down in a positive way too.
They need time to find themselves, well guess what....
WE get to do that too, except without all of the confusion, and the guilt. We get to find what we had lost over the years, and get to be who we we started out as in this.
It is truly a gift from them, and in time, you will see that.
I'm gonna repeat this, cause I know I've typed it before here....
I would NOT trade this experience for anything I've ever done. I won't do it again, but I would not trade this. The things that I have learned about myself, and friends, and getting myself out and living. Being the parent that I have become.
Even if the ending is not what I want, I will survive, and I will be a better person because of it.
