If I straight up asked him to leave, well, first, he'd blow up, but he also just wouldn't do it, as it's become more and more clear he has no intentions to. It would do nothing but make living with him more miserable.
I’m sure that would be really tough for you. After all the drama and difficulty of it all, you’d hardly feel like poking the bear!
But is living through fear a good long term outcome? You can’t continue to make decisions through how he might react. I’d imagine you’ve done this for a long time in the relationship, and it’s probably part of the reason you’ve got to here. Remember doing the 180? Maybe this is an opportunity to do the exact opposite of what you’ve always done in the past. Remember that a lot of the steps required in divorce busting actually feel completely opposite to your gut instincts and history.
