(((((((((twins!))))))))))) How wonderful! I'm glad your hanging in there with the rough stuff your H gave you in that convo. It's scary to let them go. (and I don't have kids... much less more on the way) But in having been separated since Feb 2 and having my W back for this "visit", I realized that I never would have felt this strong (as strong as that is) if my W had been home with me these past 3 months. Through all the crazy emotions and struggle to maintain in the beginning, something clicked. I don't think I realized it until she was back in the house visiting.

Don't be afraid. Letting him go is not losing him. It's giving you room to breathe. Giving you time to be your best self without concerning yourself with him for a minute. When he is irrational it's hard to remember that he can and will take care of himself if he's forced to. It's ultimately his responsibility anyway.

You get the the much better job of taking care of you and your kids!
