Newbie needs help:husband left Saturday

[dxw689]

FloydMan, have read and re-read your post. You are a star in my mind as well. Why she is stringing you along like this is unfathomable to me, just as why my husband wants to seem to almost have 2 families at once. poster on the other thread asked me how I saw my sitch as cake-eating, although of course probably hadn't read the details on what I went through over Christmas- and more stuff that continues to this day. Something builds up in there minds that they deserve it after years of holding out for better? Or just plain cowards? I get now that he felt he wasn't getting the affection he deserved. Have really tried to remedy that, have treated him kindly in all this and am walking the walk to remain open-hearted and open-minded: also is leaving me open to more hurt though. Well, husband just took kids for overnight - plan for now is for me to stay dark for most of the week until I see him for next event involving kids - later this week. Then I may have the conversation that I hear what you're saying that you don't want to be with me anymore - if you're ready to talk about divorce, then I am too.
