I wish I could find evidence of either a PA or an EA. Not that I would be acting any differently, but there's just a part of any LBS that really wants to know what's going on.
When she gets back from her Couples Weekend next weekend, I'll tell her that I plan on keeping the house, and that she should start planning to move out soon. She's put in some applications at the subsidized housing in town (her low income will qualify her) but those have a 3-6 month waiting list.
I don't want to kick her out, but 6 months of this will just be stupid. It'll hurt our kids, who are always asking me why we are always so angry. For their sake, this can't linger.
I'm not being needy and groveling. I take care of my stuff, I interact with her when necessary, but I'm living my own life now, just under the same roof.
I won't date until we're legally separated. Just can't do that. Doesn't mean I'm not looking around, and trying to have as much fun as possible, but for me to start dating 30 days after she dropped The Bomb, seems like I'm trying to replace her, something that will take awhile.
