Gordie: Pulling it all together 2

[Gordie]

"I would imagine that once they see that you are moving on to work on yourself and grow on your own, then they might realize that you are not going to be there as a plan B in the future."

Yes, that's what I'm hoping for and one positive about moving out...

"I have found 5 ways that He answers prayers."

I love your list of five...awesome!

"...if I keep my eyes on the Lord and continue to grow in my faith, then I have the faith that all things will fall into place."

Yes, indeed...and accepting that "fall into place" may look very differently than what we hope/expect.

"I am also trying to continue to learn and understand more on the MLC/WAW issues, but will we ever really understand exactly what they are going thru?"

No, probably not. I too am trying to learn and be more empathetic to my W's plight. I know she is in pain and I want to be/should be compassionate. I think it's hard because of (a) guilt that I am one of the causes of her pain and can't fix the problem, (b) anger that she has given up on the M, wants POM, and is willing to breakup of our family, and (c) sadness/grief that I am losing my best friend/wife/mother to my children/lover/life partner...and the dreams/hopes/expectations of what my life would be like...
