Matt165, I don't know why he's staying. I THINK he's staying for the kids (D3 and S1) but I don't know for sure. He has said since BD that if it wasn't for the kids he'd be long gone, but whether that's true I don't know. I would say another thing that keeps him around is that he's unsure. He doesn't know what he wants and so he can't make that final decision to leave. This is not really about me, but about breaking up and walking away from our family, our home, everything we've built up together. Is it okay for my kids, especially D3, to see daddy come and go as he pleases? Absolutely not. I don't want to raise my daughter with insecurities.. not knowing if daddy will be there for her or not. Asking where's daddy? Why isn't he home? And as much as I want him to move out for my sanity, am I ready for that? I don't know. If it happens then I will have no choice but I don't know that I am ready to decide fro him. That is why I am welcoming this month off. I will be able to detach and become me again (hopefully).
Me: 35, H: 36, M: 6, S: 1, D: 3, BD: 4/21/14 H still living at home
