Btw G, WH wrote more in that email but I edited it down by two lines which were more detail about bub's condition.
Interesting you think that he said more than he needs to...
I think partly that he feels guilty (for everything AND for leaving the country without wanting to say goodbye to me or my family --- which is HUGE. They were SO close!)...

But a bigger part of me thinks he just wants me to accept this as the status quo and actually that he's happy as a pig in sh*t:

+ Is now a Father, with capitol 'F'; and a much better one than his own. Paying me child support eventually will be a pleasure because it will asuage his guilt and increase his feelings of ownership/investment
+ Has the woman of his dreams
+ Is now living again in the city with his best childhood friends and one or two adored family members
+ Is back living in the country/city of his origins and his dream city
+ Is on the cusp of getting a job in the industry of his dreams in the city of his dreams
+ Has no responsibilities. Free! Young again! New love!


I mean, heck, I know we are not supposed to focus on our spouses or soon to be ex-spouses, but life for WH is looking pretty HOT!

Compare this to me:

+ Shattered relationship, single, rebuilding dreams
+ single parenting
+ living with my parents
+ not living in the city/country I want to
+ bored with my job.

Ok...Clearly, since I can only control myself and am responsible for living the life I want, I HAVE WORK TO DO! smile
