Hi Chelsea. I wanted to answer your questions. My H didn't ever leave physically even though I think he left me emotionally a couple of years ago.
You see he got involved with a woman from work who was unhappy in her marriage and leaned on my H for support. She made him feel like a knight in shining armour and made him feel so good about himself.
My H forgot to sign off this computer one day last June right after our 30th anniversary and I went snooping and found the emails between him and the OW. I confronted him and he admitted that he was committed to the OW and was planning to leave me to be with her. Because our only child a daughter was in a very difficult and high risk pregnancy he decided he would stay home until January so as not to cause her stress.
Well I was lucky enough to find this wonderful place in the first couple of days after discovery and everyone here has helped guide me in my reactions to this trauma. It took a SBT therapist and this place to help get things turned around. It was early November when he let me know he was not going anywhere. We have come a long way but still have some things to work on. Check on my thread for the latest update.
