Thanks for your input R2C and VV.

VV--I am trying to do things for myself but it is hard since a lot of the things I enjoy doing I did with my H. Every evening I go somewhere to get out of the house for a few hours, but I'm really having to force myself to do it right now.

I totally understand what you're saying about not wanting your old marriage back. I don't want to go back to the way things were, but I'm also not willing to give up on creating a new, better marriage.

R2C--Thank you for your help in what I can say to set the boundaries. Unfortunately, I already know he wants out of our marriage so once I say he needs to leave, that will probably be the end and I want to save our marriage. The girl he is involved with is going back to Thailand on Monday, so I was hoping to wait and see how that would change our dynamic. Maybe once she is gone he will take more notice of the changes I am making in myself.
