I was separated from my H for six months.. He needed his space and quite frankly if I hadnt given it to him we wouldnt be together now! It was and still is the hardest thing I have ever had to do..

Our upheaval for want of a better word started early May 09, he left in Aug 09, I saw him a couple of weekends after that but then a whole month of going NC or as little as I could possibly manage.

Well he started coming back to visit, and after a rather big tantrum session on his part where I stayed as cool as the preverbial cucumber stuff started to change, he started to stay longer each time he came and now we are back together although separated on and off over January whilst he finishes off commitments/hobby classes where he went to live!

Space can be good, if it gives them time to think, but echo Jeff 100% dont talk to anyone else about it, I even gave up talking to my mum who being in her seventies got the whole wrong end of the stick, phone my sister and relayed stick, then sis (we wont go there) phoned my H and relayed stick to him, laughingly H knew that the stick was just a tall story and thankfully knew me well enough to realise what had happened and we had a good laugh about it.. Just remember if you sort this whole sorry mess out both of you will have to face all these people again..
