Just feeling a little down today - not sure why but thought if I get it out it will get better - ha. I am working so hard on detaching and just when i think i have it - i fall back - anyone have any good advice on how to really detach???? It's going on 6+ months now. Is the random texting thing part of the pursuit game? just checking to see if I am still out there somewhere? It will be interesting in the next few days as I have made plans with friends of mine and he will be out of town as well so no opportunity to see each other for a few days - he picks the kids up every morning - this will be weird to not see him for days but maybe it will be a good thing for me. I still think he is subconsciously using the kids just to hang around the house and/or ease his guilt and/or keep him from being alone to ponder what the hell he is doing. I really don't know how people hold on for years.
