NM - Maybe I'm wrong, but I think H's texts are practically screaming for you to tell him that he needs to come home and be a family again. He's so confused, he can't figure out what to do, and he's asking you. You need to tell him, give him a positive image of the future the two of you could have together. (Also, how much better off you'd both be financially if you lived together and both worked - it'll bemuch easier than you trying to work as a single mom).
