My husband and I have been together for 4 years and married now for only 10 months. He left home in November and no one knows where he is living. We have 2 children together and he walked out and left 5 days after returning home from the hospital with our second child. He left after I found a number he retrieved from calling the chat line. I questioned him about it, said what I had to say and left it alone.After a month of his absence, I found out where his job had placed him and went to where he has been working. He claims he left because we have not been getting along for a while and he need time to get to know himself and get a place of his own that he has always wanted. (He has always lived with someone all of his life). He also states that when he talk to his parents and family, the say he should come home but they don't understand how he feel. It is time to do what he want to do for himself and not do what eferyone else think he should do. He also states that he don't feel for the marriage the way he use to and don't have the married feeling right now. He has gotten a cell phone and gave me the number. Unfortunately, he hardly ever answers when I call and always come up with some excuse. He claims he's not involved with anyone (I dont't believe that). He said if it is meant to be with us it will be. During this time he seems to flip-flop with his answers and say he is coming home, but back out and say he is not ready. He comes over for Christmas and we had a wonderful time. We kissed and everything. When he gets back to where ever he is staying he seems to change his mind about how he feels. He says he loves me but not as deep as he use to. He says that he felt small when he left home and I stripped his manhood away. He refuses to meet me half way at this point to fix our marriage. I need some advice on what to do!

Deep, deep pea soup fog. And into this fog, he's pulled a disappearing act. Keep reading here. What he is doing is right in the wayward script. It's not time for meeting halfway. It's time for Plan A.

Instead of sharing the joy of a new baby, being a father and a man, your H is gone. I'd say that he's stripped his own manhood. What is it with these guys who bailout on their children?

What's the rest of the story? 10-1, he is having an A. Keep posting.


Grapes are versatile. Grapes can be sour, sweet, sublime as wine and fabulous even when old and dried out.

Me: BS
XCH: Clueless
2-DS: Bigger than me
1-DD: Now also bigger than me!

5/6: Personally served CH with divorce papers
6/6: CH F? wants to time to see if M can be saved
7/6: FCH reenters our lives to work on marriage but secretly signs papers to start divorce...what's that about?
Mediation set for November
Final dissolution in January 2007.
2008 and beyond: Life goes on...
