Really, he broke down crying twice. He didn't seem to be playing games. Has anyone else encountered this? When I pulled back too much, he became angry and thought I was out looking for guys. I want to stand firm, but I don't want to make him think I've just completely moved on.

He said he missed our life together and he missed how we were together, but he was afraid he couldn't go back. He said he missed our Friday night dinners, and he missed the songs we sing. He spent the whole night with me, laughing and talking, watching a show together. He had coffee with me in the morning and gave me another big hug, held me for a long time. Has anyone seen this before?

I do agree that I still need to say I don't want the divorce, but I will do what you want. I did sort of say that. I said I wanted a separation, but obviously it would be up to him in the end.
