Aaaaand another update. Things are moving fast today.

So, he finally agreed to see his sister. They met at a restaurant. I highly doubt that he invited her to come over. She texted me a picture of him and her together... JESUS CHRIST!

I have not seen him in a week and a half, and I truly don't recall the last time he looked so awful. He never looked so awful.

His chin has sagged some. His eyes are very puffy. He is clenching his teeth in attempt to smile. His eyes look a combination of wild, sad, and tired.

He looks aged and unstable.

He is normally a very photogenic man. This is, by far, the worst picture of him that I have ever seen.

I took a selfie of myself to see if I look that bad. Nope! In spite of everything he's put me through, I look very much as I ever have.

He texted me later to let me know that he told his sister that he's going on a 12-month deployment. His actual deployment is only about 9 months. His plan is to shack up with his girlfriend as soon as he comes back.

I keep looking back at that picture. It horrifies me. It is so unsettling that it makes my skin crawl.


Right now I'm trying my best to map out my course of action for the month that he and I will be sharing house and for the time when he is deployed.
