Fact is he is abandoning the family he created regardless of whether it's him or you. Forgive me, but this is a really sore point of mine considering I am being faced with the same issues in pregnancy. I really really doubt you were that "mean" that he would be justified in leaving his family. Even if you were, the vows were "sickness, health, better, worse, death do us part" not "unless my wife is too mean". His obligation in marriage is to figure out a way to work things out not leave. I may be old-fashioned but the only people I think are justified in leaving without trying are those in abusive relationships.
I totally agree with you.... for me unless it's abuse or cheating everything else is fixable (to those who want to fix things of course) and vows should be honored and they should want to fix things. I wish my H believed as we do. Unfortunately people want what they want, and what they want is to be "happy"...not righteous, honorable, or a person of their word. smh.
