I just wanted to know how everyones WS acted on the day they left. My H just left to stay with a friend and doesn't seem to happy at all. He cleaned like a mad man and seemed really upset. Afterall he is leaving his pregnant wife, home, family, and friends. I keep wandering if having OW will be enough. He sure acts unhappy now.

That's that hope isn't it? That he'll find out OW isn't enough?

My H left in anger, moved out ALL his clothes because he was afraid I would throw them on the lawn (from what his mom did to his dad).

Things sound good for you two working it out.

I'm just amazed that an OW would get involved with a MM with a pregnant wife <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" />
How does she think this will turn out????

I knew two weeks in advance he was leaving. He was moving out March 1st, but actually stayed until the 4th, because both of us were sick with the flu.

At first he wanted to meet at a restaurant in separate cars, have a nice dinner and say our goodbyes in the parking lot, that way he said he wouldn't see me break down, or maybe he wouldn't break down either.

I said no way, if you are going to leave me, you will leave me like a man. He wouldn't kiss me goodbye, I still have 102 fever and barely able to get up to say our goodbyes, He said he didn't want to catch what I got, but he was one who gave it to me to begin with.

He said he always love me (but not in love with me--classic line) and is time to work on ourselves and that he will be lonely just as much as I. Not to contact him, and he will contact me.

Lonely was a joke, a few weeks later I found enough courage to go out, and found him out shopping with the OP he had the A with. He told me her car broke down and looking for jumper cables.

The bottom line, I wish I was feeling better when he left, he stills comes once a week to pack things up and get his mail, but he does it when I'm at work. After fourteen years there is alot of stuff. He said if I change the locks, it would be a sign that he is not welcome anymore, but I'm not allow to know where he living. Go figure.

My XW didn't announce the day she was moving her stuff out. She & OM rented a truck, came to the house while I was at work, left a big mess from their lunch, and the toilet seat was up....something XW taught me not to do, and I still don't even though I live alone. Also, OM's cig butts all over outside....XW can't stand smokers, but she married OM anyway.

Mine just gathered up all his clothes and left! Didn't look back. Didnt' seem remorseful or anything. Just said he cant live the rest of his life this way. As I was crying my heart out and begging him to stay.

The next morning I just sat on the couch for hours...hoping he would come home...he DID come home, SEEMED remorseful and we held each other for HOURS and HOURS....went straight back to OW for 3 weeks. Things got worse before they got better! Hang in there durham...
