I agree with LH.

Keep in mind I'm new at this and have no idea what I'm doing. I am NOT a veteran.

My WAH left 7 months ago and I've been dark for the past 3. In the beginning he gave me an inkling of hope that he might want reconcile later (said he needed time) but took it back. He was going to file for D asap but hesitated. I might have hope for years down the road but I am not in limbo.

My WAH may never come back and I get that but for us to have a shot at reconciling he needed to leave. He believes he will be happier without me and that I am the source of all of his problems. Maybe that is true I don't know but what I do know is he needs to live in reality (for at least a year) to find out for himself. In the meantime I will move on.
