Thanks for replying. Are you saying that you asked H to leave or you just GAL and that brought H around?
I have taken steps to GAL. I have joined a gym. I have left the kids with H on weekends and on a Friday night and have gone out. H will watch the kids, weeknights are just hard. I am just not sure if he views any of this as me moving on or just giving him more freedom to continue. We have no family close by. We have not lived here to long so ... it is hard to find a sitter.
