oh boy. let's see:
**I didn't make the house someplace he wanted to be (i have photos of him sitting happily on his sofa in the living room I repainted and re-decorated myself while he was on a business trip - three months before he left)

** I was too fat. I am 5'9" and was fluctuating between a size 12-14

** He didn't like the way I cooked broccoli

**I spent too much money. (On groceries? I dunno. Meanwhile he had 4 gym memberships - two on each coast, two motorcycles, his lease for his SUV rivaled our health insurance monthly payments, and may have actually exceeded them)

** I wasn't earning enough (I worked part time and took care of our son and his many extra curricular activities while exh worked full time, and for the 6 years prior to BD his travel schedule for work was anywhere from 30-50%)

I also got that he "wanted something different"

I could go on, but you get the point. The bottom line is they just want out, period.

A box full of darkness.
It took me years to understand,
That this too, was a gift."
