"He is cake - eating to the BAZILLIONTH power. And, frankly, he's just not cute enough."
^^agree!!
NM,
Go back and read "Why Men Love Bitches." I got that book after it was mentioned on your thread and it has changed my outlook on things. You are showing that you are the unconditional love for your husband but it is also the type of love that is similar to a mother's love. You don't want your husband to start having the type of love for you that he has for his mother. You are the BETTER OPTION!! No need to try to convince him anymore of that. Now you need to show him and yourself most importantly that you know YOUR WORTH. You know YOUR VALUE and you respect yourself enough to not be a standby. You are smart, funny, beautiful, a wonderful wife and mother. You are not a standby.
I admired how you handled your stitch especially in the very beginning when you kicked him out. I also admired how you are able to remain calm and control your emotions around him doing Plan A and semi-Plan B(I do not have that type of discipline). Don't loose who you are to win husband back. You are more than enough.
