H left last April and has been seeing OW for at least a year. He was unhappy before he left, so he's been in replay for at least a year, so there's another year left? He's been bouncing back and forth for the last four months. I cannot believe he is stil in replay. His anger stage has been gone for at least a couple of months. He's been more nice than angry. So I BELIEVE he's coming to the end of replay and setting himself up for depression, if he's not already there.
I just cannot believe he'll be in replay for another six-8 months. I do believe he is full blown crisis right NOW, but another six months of replay? He moved back in November, then for a weekend in December. Decided he would move back home and try again, but his feelings for OW are still there.
The spending has been going on the last two years, the drinking has been heavy for over the last year. H really began getting unhappy when our S was born, four years ago and has slowly been building.
I really think he's getting ready to hit rock bottom and SOON!
