I presented the living arrangement idea to my H last night. I did it very business like and pointed out the kids and finincial benefit. When I said it's what's best for the kids, he said "What about me". I was shocked that even came out of his mouth. This is not the same man I knew 6 months ago. I stayed very calm and continued to explain the idea and then I left the room, put the kids to bed, and left. As I was leaving, he looked very depressed and down and I just went on my marry way with a smile on my face.
I kinda of knew ahead of time that was going to be his reaction. He is a negative sponge and nothing I say to him comes accross as positive in his mind. Of course I now realize that, and no longer obsess about what I might have said wrong. It's all about me and my kids for me right now. He did say we just need to get D as soon as possible and move on. I said to him "Sorry you feel that way, you know how I feel about D. You need to do whatever you think is the best decision for yourself and what will make you happy" He didn't reply and just hung his head low. I think he is more depressed than me!!!!
