You are right, H's plan is totally half baked. I don't think he really crunched numbers to see how much it takes to do what he wants to do. OW seems to share a room with somebody else, so H staying there is not an option right now. But of course, they could get a new place together I guess.
I really don't beliebe OW situation as H said, especially because they work together and have many mutual friends/coworkers...
As you said, I think I'm still too reluctant to take the next step. I know I have to protect my kids, it's just the next step seems too real and scary. But I made promise to myself that I will set the time frame to see how he is going to be, if nothing changes or gets worse, I will go forward.
As for GALing, I went to my first Spanish class last night and it was fun! I wish I could have done it before. This is something I would never have done thogh, if this hadn't happened. (Using time for just myself when H is home and going to unfamilier places on my own etc)
Thanks for the recommendation, I will look it up rigt now
