He hasn't touched me in 7 weeks.

Our lease is up in june and I'm going to start looking for places to live on my own. I can't let him use me for my car and money.


There was a really interesting article in the New York Times about a Montana wife who gave her husband the space he needed to realize his love for his wife and family.

I would suggest that you read it and perhaps think about the lessons from the story. You are certainly free to do whatever you want to do.

Let me give you some advice. Seven weeks may seem like a lot to you, but from most of us in the SSM forum, it is a very short period of suffering.

Good luck to you.
