Well, he found out I moved our funds to a different bank account and went ballistic. He sent a nasty email telling me he was coming home to close his bank accounts, move his personal belongings out of the house and that we are done. I can't even put quotes from his email here because it is full of so much profanity about me, our employees, "my fantasies," etc. I heard those threats many times the last time we went through this, but he never followed through. We'll see.

At the same time he was essentially screaming at me, he apologized for hurting me and said he would welcome the chance to talk if I am willing - as long as I don't get ugly!

I don't think I will be responding to him. How do you possible respond to an email like that?

He is angry with anyone and everyone who knows about his life over there, especially the employees who confirmed his affair to me. I guess he thought they would carry around his burden of guilt forever.

Anyway, I am very apprehensive about him coming back. I don't want him in the house without me here, but I am actually afraid of him. He would never hit me or anything like that, but he can be brutal when it comes to emotional abuse.

I thought about having someone here with me, but I fear that will just make things worse. And, if a civil conversation is possible, I want to listen - as long as HE doesn't get ugly.

It seems like things always come down to money. Nothing else would get him home, but that did!

Hopefully, I can find a way to be strong when he's here. I have to.
