Thanks EH!

Ellie: I think so too. I know that my ex tried it a few times but in so many of the cases - they are with OP when they leave so not depressed in the same way.

One of my dear DB friends from the beginning had her H break up with his OW at about the 2 year mark. She then took her own life. That was pretty creepy.

I ran in to a cop friend last night who knew about it. He also went through a marital breakup at the 25 year mark (same as my friend and also me). He told me that in cases like this - it IS purposeful. They jump to "Stick it" to the soon to be ex. I know I have thought that for sure in this case. He did not want to pay her support despite his huge salary. But to kill himself?

Oh I will be glad when the funeral is over. It is this morning. My daughter, and several of my friends will be attending with me. It will be hard for all.
