Two weeks later... I was really hoping for some advice or comments here, but no such luck. Nothing really much has been happening in the R. I think I've only seen H twice in two weeks and he hasn't been calling the kids so really contact has been minimal since the weekend talk. I haven't moved forward with the lawyer and I'm unsure of what to do. In terms of GAL, I have enough for two people. I'm running, coaching, joined a "boot camp" etc. Plus the kids and running the house and my job.
Drop the rope - I've dropped the rope, but he isn't looking back. I just feel stuck! I feel like "Now what??". Still looking for any advice. Does anyone ever really come back from this? I know there's no real time line for any of this, but I feel like I'm running out of time. One of the kids the other day said, "I don't really even remember Dad living with us - I don't miss him anymore." I still miss him, but it's definitely not as intense. Do I really even want this M anymore or am I just hanging on because it's what I do???
