Solution to that - don't let him back in the bed unless he plans to STAY there. Moving back and forth is a little childish.

Maybe that was the problem. He knew you would always be there and took that for granted.

He goes to work, comes home, watches the kids and drinks


Is that not a very bad idea - drink and kids do not mix. What lesson is it teaching them?

he could care less about me.


Then why does he still stay there and feel so much guilt for what he has done to you?

Quote:
I wish I knew what I did that was so awful.


This isn't about you, it's about him. You didn't do anything that was so awful. He is just trying to punish you for the pain he feels. He does that by making you feel the same way he is.
