Morning Hope- I know that you don't feel powerful right now, and i have felt the same way. But, you do have power over how you will react to your H, what you will do, and how long you will hang on. I think we both need to take back some control over our lives. I am sorry that you feel unloved and taken advantage of. I've certainly felt the same way. But, i try to look at this way: if my H didn't love me, he could act a lot more hateful towards me. Like i said before, i think they do love us, but they love themselves more. For whatever reason, there isn't room for us right now. I don't know if that helps, but i hold on to the fact that my H does love me, but just not how i want him to. I just don't think they can fully understand the consequences of their actions and how their behaviors affect others. B/c they are too wrapped up in their "perfect" world with ow. Anyway, just my 2 cents.
