Also, have you checked out either online or w/a lawyer as to how all of this will play out if you ask him to leave? What would you be entitled to, how much support he would pay, etc. I would check all of this out before I opened the door and asked him to leave.

Step back for a few days and breathe. You will know when the time is right to broach the subject of him leaving.

BTW, one last question...what will you do if he says no? You might want to think about that response too.


I was planning to ask the lawyer how to proceed if he says no. Guess I should figure all that out before speaking with him, as well as give myself time to calm down. I am just so sick of him. He needs something that will shock the sense into him. He is walking around in his own bubble acting as if he is unaware of the emotional impact that his dumb decisions are having on our family. The marriage is completely dead and will need a miracle to be resuscitated at this point.
