Considering that my H was really not a very good husband or father, I think I was more attached to the *idea* of him, rather than him. I could see what was possible, but that's not what was. I still love him, and I would still like to have my family together, but it would have to be within the context of a healthier R between us, which would require that both us be mentally/emotionally healthy.






I can really relate..how long have you been in no contact with him?

This is really amazing how much we can all relate.
