yeah, it feels like such insanity, doesn't it? and in my case, such a cliche--changed jobs/hospital systems and got a 35K raise, changed denominations, and left the marriage all in the space of 10 weeks. I supported him when he came out of the monastery, while he was in grad school and residency, and when...finally...our ship came in, he sailed without me because "he deserved better." I was a complete non-entity at that point. nothing I did was even going to get noticed, let alone any response.
