I am not ready to confess my knowledge of H's relationship(s) which I know little about. What is getting easier through reading these posts is that I will never really know what made H snap at that time. His decision to leave was very impulsive and he quickly did things to keep him from being able to turn back. now, he has slowed down; he still has things here at the house. Friends and family have been supportive and counseling is a blessing. As a teacher I'm home for the summer and that is my biggest problem b/c I am too fixated on m problems. (In addition to H leaving my last daughter starts college in 3 weeks.) This is my plan: I am going to find something to do outside of my house every day this coming week. Thanks for the encouragement.
