I can't imagine what it's like to be tied in business with an MLC spouse.
One question I have is, what are your options here?
I find that he wants you to trust him twistedly funny (I have an odd sense of humor esp now). Trust him how and to do what? What's best for himself? Where do you and D fit into his "plans"?
It's really hard esp early on not to think that everything you do and say will be the "deal breaker". Eventually you get to a point where you truly speak honestly for yourself without the fear that you are doing something "wrong".
As hard as it is, you really do have to live like he's gone for good. The best analogy that worked for me is that the door isn't closed, but I'm not standing there waiting either.
Would you make different choices if he was gone for goo? If so, what would they be?
