Wen,

I agree with Beatrice you are doing very well with all of this.

While it is understandable that you are concerned for your H, please try to remember that this is the result of his choices and he has to learn to live with that.

He is angry and frustrated right now because he is beginning to see the results of what he has done. And it isn't as rosy as he pictured it.

Let him deal with this on his own.

I know it is hard to share a house with an MLCer. Having space of your own is going to be good for you.

My X moved into the spare room. He told me for weeks that he wanted me to clean it so he could move in there and I wouldn't do it. I had offered to move in there myself, and he said no he wanted to. So I left it for him to take care of. A little over a year later, after I had made "our room" into my room, he told me that he couldn't wait for me to move out so he could take that room back since he had only moved into the spare because I wouldn't. Didn't even remember that I had offered. Such is the way of MLC.

Keep enjoying your children and grandchildren and make good memories with them.

And enjoy your Woman Cave. smile
