I think you are in Vancouver, I'm real close in Birch Bay. I hope Princess can find her way here. My H. leaving was quick, but I think he had it in his mind for awhile. If only he had given some real notice.
It's interesting, I have a 35 yo d, she's in a R of 5 y. I told her about the book ILYBNILWU, and it is really helping them. Wish I had read it 5 y ago. My H. is having such a hard time w back pain issues, I wish that when he felt better with that he would feel better with us. But don't think so, once he makes up his mind about something that is it.
I agree that my lack of int. in sex was total rejection for him, he really valued that highly. Me not so much, b/c I felt it was just a physical thing with him so much of the time and not an intimacy thing. Men/Mars, Women/Venus?!
I just am going along with this and am going to try to be a better me and maybe someday... b/c it's all happening whether I like it or not. Nice to hear from you!
