Really, when I hear that your H isn’t considerate of you, isn’t attentive to you, it doesn’t surprise me. Most separated couples don’t continue to meet each other’s emotional needs.
I know. But I've seen it happen, including H's own mother and father, and I just thought we could do it, too. I've always been naïve.

I really thought I could do it longer than this. Between private prep schools and colleges and a good sized house, there's a lot of cash to be thrown down on behalf of my kids in next few years, and I thought I could play the game long enough to ensure that it happened. And I don't know for sure that I won't, but I'm making an escape plan just in case. Just like H did. He tried to play the game, couldn't do it, and left. It's come full circle now.
