I understand what you mean about what is best for you vs. what is best for the children.
I know my children would be sad if their dad didn't live here. And that thought breaks my heart. Every single day.
But... And this is a big but... I also don't want was has been going on for the past year (and longer) to be the example of what M should be. A one-sided M with no love or affection from a H? I would be horrified if my boys thought this was the norm and treated their future spouses or significant others that way.
Plus, it's certainly not best for the kids to have our savings all spent.
Good luck today, please let us know how it goes
