You're not being negative, Kimmie, I've been wondering the same myself. I'm a "marriage is forever" type of person, so I know I have stuck this out a lot longer than many people would have.

My C is concerned not only about the emotional abuse and his drinking (a bottle of wine a day) but also about the fact that he seems to take no responsibility for his actions, and that's the type of person who is not going to change anything.

The late-night calls and texts are still going on, but they are being returned less and less by OW. Lots of sent messages, very few received the past few days. H is still being strange, he is sending mixed messages. Seems upset that I am GALing (got in touch with some old friends, made plans for Sunday) but I have been in better spirits ever since my visit to the counselor. Gonna see her again next week. I have an appointment with a L next week too.

Even talked to a few people in MI, and was told by a friend that they could get me a job if I needed to move back. So things seem less dire and much more positive for sure.
