Will check out the Enneagram better. It seems to me that the "type 4" personality, if taken to a pathological degree, becomes borderline personality disorder, where your sense of satisfaction and identity is completely beholden to others: you only feel happy if someone likes you, loves you, wants you; you only feel sexual desire if someone wants you.

How did you handle your initial "big talk" w/ your kids? Did you do the 10 & the 13 year old together? How did you phrase the overall reason for breaking up? "We're not getting along?" "We're not happy together?"

Thanks.

p.s. I have been thinking about how I'm going to set up my new home -- my way -- and that brings me a certain measure of happiness.
