NLW,

THANK YOU! I have spent the last couple of hrs. reading thru your last couple of threads. Our similarities are uncanny... Specially in OUR feelings. Every word and doubt and fear you describe I have felt. It is nice to see that I am not going crazy...

My focus is now on me and my kids.



I also agree that detachment should be easier. I look at my H and really just want him to leave me alone. I wished I didn't have to see him or talk to him. I know that is essential for my well-being and recovery. Unfortunately, that is an impossibility in my sitch, with such young children.

But I can definitely put up more boundaries and need to be better at enforcing them. You got some good advice on that in your thread and I will follow it.

Send him to my lawyer...

Thank you again. I will visit your thread as well and keep following your sitch closely. I know we will find the strength to see this through.
