SS-
I wish that it had been my decision to move out. The first time i moved out it was more of a mutual decision and i had more options of places to go. After i moved back home when we attempted reconciliation, my H left and lived with his brother and his wife for about 2 1/2 months. But, my H basically forced me out the second time. I didn't want to go. He insisted that i contribute more money towards house expenses (i had been paying $800 a month and after he moved out, he made me pay $1500 a month, which was virtually impossible for me...but i think he did it b/c he thought it would force me to move...it didn't...i paid it, which i am sure pissed him off). Those 2 months or so that he was out, he was so nasty to me and basically harrassed me until i agreed to leave again. And, of course he told me that things would get better if i left. Thats my story...

I've thought the same thing...do i miss my cats more than my H? Sometimes, yes!
