Thanks Susana and Gan. I really appreciate your comments. This is the reply I have sent:
Dear H
I'm so sorry that you feel your life has run off course. Please know that I only wish happiness for us both, and for SS. I understand that you want to simplify your life and don't want to live and work in different places.
Of course you are free to make your own choices. I respect your wishes and if you file for divorce, I won't stand in your way. But divorce isn't what I want. I love you, and I hope that we may one day find our way back to each other.

I did have a couple of wobbles. Mainly asking myself if I'm being selfish sending this? He would much prefer I reply, agree to a divorce and move forwards. Me not doing that and telling him I love him, makes all of this harder for him.
I have sent this for me really. I feel that if he knows this and chooses to file for divorce, I can better move on.
I have no expectations - other that he may feel - ugh - or angry. I certainly don't feel we are close to a 'turning point' and I don't hope for that. But at least I have told him now how I truly feel, and I am glad of that.
Thanks so much for your help everyone. I really appreciate it. T x
