He's moving into his new apartment this week. He's officially living the single life. He dropped by the other night and pretended that he was just concerned about me and wanted to check on me (because I had my phone turned off for several hours). I realized after a few minutes however that he just wanted to talk. Looking at him; he seems so depressed and lost. He said he was overwhelmed and needed a "break from it all." Its crazy, though Im the one who is going through HELL because of his decision, I ended up comforting him and letting him know that things would be fine. We were intimate and I question if I am allowing him to have his cake and eat it too.

Also starting to wonder if I am being too passive in this sitch. Should I take him to court in order to recieve financial support. Being a friend to him during this time is one thing but being a fool is another. How do I DB and be supportive of him all while looking out for myself? One of the issues that we had in our marriage was that he took on all of the financial responsibiity. He wont admit it, I believe that it became too much for him. So if I want him back, do I get a job (im in my last semeter of Grad school btw. The plan was that he would support me until I got my degree and then we would both be working) or should he pay me support? I know that getting a job and holding down things on my own would be more "attractive" and prob would be better for my self growth but at the same time I am clinically depressed right now (because of this separation) and I am trying to complete my thesis. Taking on a full time job would be alot for me right now. What do I do??? This sitch [censored]!!!! frown
