ah, a very confused man indeed (your sitch is a bit similar to mine, ex left, was dating, but unhappy, got an L and started to file but never finished, I bought time... eventually after 8 mths he came back, still never happy though, so things went south and we D) Sounds like he might have a MLC, lost, trying to find that something that will fill him up, thinking it is too late (ex kept saying that, but I always told him it wasn't, though I had no idea he had a ow). Hence the ILY, it's a mess he keeps dragging you down with him... did you ever offer to go to MC with him?... and seriously, you do need to see a T, I remember how awful I felt, being in limbo, feeling unwanted, ugly and old and all sorts of crazy.. DO see someone, this isn't easy.
I wouldn't offer the couch if I were you, he made his bed let him lay on it.
Be not afraid...I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten Joel2
