I can't make him leave and I can't move right now. Soooo.....what do I do? I want him to know I am serious.

So he might stall and wait for you to back down. And if you back down, he'll always have it over you, never believing any threat... until you actually act on it.

How about putting a "for sale" sign on the front lawn? How about if I call and when H answers, I ask how much you're asking for the house?

Maybe the thing to do is to act as if you're taking his indecision as an answer, the answer being "I can't say 'yes'" and start acting as what a spouse would say and do if they were given that answer. What would you be doing if he said "Then I can't say yes to you so I'm going to leave"? What would H be hearing and seeing from you?

Are you through with him? Can you declare that he needs to be out by a certain date? Are you prepared to go to a divorce attorney in order to obtain perhaps a legal separation to get him out, or a divorce proceeding?

Well I am meeting a friend tonight and am not telling H. See what he says about that. When I packed some jeans he questioned what I was doing after work. Why does he care???

WASs do things like that, don't they. Hey, Sherry, don't forget to dab on some perfume before going out with your "friend".
