He told me to get a L to handle "our" D in the e-mail he sent in January. He checked in 3 weeks later and said since you aren't getting one, I will.....I told him I had made contact with one, but that the L would be for me and my interests (not for "our" D) and that his L could contact mine. He sent e-mail last week telling me he would be sending me a property statement for my L---that he once again has decided to "do this" on his own---without a L. I truly believe that he thinks if I've hired a L he can have her do all of the work for him----and that will not be the case.
I actually questioned whether I should tell him because it is what I think he wants to hear, and to let him know why I was leaving work early. There is no "tricking" here. I have no dreams of "waking" him up. I've been there, done that. Really. I'm seeing the L because I know it is what I have to do. I am seeing the L because he told me to, not because I want to----and not because I want to dangle a threat in front of him. You're right, he doesn't need to know.
I don't dwell on whether he's hitting bottom----I do understand that he either is or isn't----no matter what I do. I do know that I hit bottom and am slowly on my way out.
