Hey cat, I almost put this on my thread, because I am struggling with a lot right now too. This is a second separation for me, so your post really resonated with me.
A second separation from the same spouse ? If so, that is very similar to me. He never moved back but we did see a lot of each other from July 1st thru Nov. 18th. Then BAM !!! I accidently found him on a dating website looking for a long term relationship.
