hmom,
your situation sounds like mine except my W was the one to leave.
I WAS like your husband in that I often kept my feeling to myself. I didn't agrue with W and agreed to her view point to stop the tension between us. I was not a good communicator.

But the difference is that your H decided to leave. This is why I think there may be depression or MLC going on.

Have you ever suggested to him to see a doctor?

Until he accepts the fact there may be something wrong there's nothing you can do. Suggested once and leave it alone.
Take care of yourself-----you will hear this over and over .
Question:

Looking at your interaction W him, would you say HE thinks you nagged him?

If so get the book PEI MOM suggest by Pat LOve, it will give you a better understanding about the way men and women perceive things.

I am going away for the weekend so I won't be around until MOnday.
Wo
