Thanks everyone. My girls will be home in a hour and that will really help cheer me up. I guess I am just confused why he did this. I have been so generous and loving towards him, having him over Christmas morning. I have really been gentle to someone that has ripped my family in half.
Should I tell him that we will not be in the apartment Sunday he should come collect his things??
You're absolutely right! You have been generous and loving. What was your motivation for doing these things? My guess, from reading all your posts, is because this is the person you are and want to be. I hope you can feel some pride in your ability to be strong in the face of such pain. This is unconditional love in action and it ain't easy!
What do you want to accomplish by having him collect his things? If this will help you detach and continuing being a better "BM" then absolutely. You have every right to tell him this. Even if you decide not to do this, can you put his things away somewhere where they are out of sight and out of mind?
Wish I had answers for you but you are very capable in finding your own answers. Hope you have a fun day with the girls!
