He wanted out. he had it all set up to go live at his sisters for when he dropped the bomb on me. Actually, he dropped the bomb on my after we put our 6 month old baby down to sleep while watching a TV show. He was prepared to leave that night. I actually called my dad out in NY and I left with my daughter for 2 and a half months to his house. he stayed until I came back. And he was out as soon as I came back. he wanted to feel free to affair away and didn't want to deal with the effects of what happens when you tell your wife out of nowhere who just gave birth to your child he was leaving. he also vehemently denied an affair. So, I imagine to keep that illusion going on, he had to be as far away as possible. His intention was to make everyone think his OW came after we split, not while I was pregnant.

I'm glad, the second he dropped the bomb, being under the same roof with him felt like pure torture. For both of us I guess.
