Arsh, maybe 'someday' is a key word to focus on. Nothing sounds like it'll be good in the short-term. It'll be hard for you and your daughters. Trust me it was terrible when my husband left again last summer and our daughter didn't understand why we moved and he wasn't there and he'd come and leave and I was crying and she'd be crying as he left and yet he still did it anyway. Kids do adapt to change but the bigger concern is how it'll affect them when they're older and better understand what happened. If your husband comes back in the next few years this should have minimal impact on your daughters when they get older if the marriage is totally rebuilt and becomes stable again. And if you and your husband carve out an amicable relationship even if you stay divorced it seems that will help your daughters a lot. There are a lot of good things that could happen someday....hope is sometimes the only thing that can help us survive the misery we feel right now.
