Thanks PM Every once in a while I think I need to step back and remember that I need to detach as much as possible. I can remain calm in the eye of the storm. I am going to try as hard as I can to not let how he is acting and what he is saying affect me. It is especially hard when he is acting sad and distant and I am used to helping him, and being there for him. Should I still be offering help or leave him be?
Being apart isn't so bad. I am actually ENJOYING my free time! I don't have to worry about what he is doing or what he is going to say to me. (and don't have to walk on eggshells around him). I have been doing a lot of reading and going for walks, all without worrying about what is going on with H. And when he came to visit yesterday, he seemed SO much happier and was actually joking around with me. The whole situation seemed a lot better, and tension seemed to have been lifted.
