Putting my life back together

[Ahoy]

NewLeaf -- They don't have a chance to miss you until they are away. I can tell you that in my case, the separation has been a good thing. I don't have to try to live with someone who is in emotional turmoil and lashing out at me verbally with crazy pronouncements of revisionist history. It is much more peaceful (and clean) in my home. I do not miss living with H. Having space might give you some perspective on the relationship as well. It definitely helps with detaching. Best of luck!
