If you have not followed my post, my H has changed his mind 3 or 4 times in the last few weeks about our D. I had to file in Jan for custody reasons......he was really out of his mind then and was going to take son ect ect.<P>Our biggest problem is his nerves. He is on prozac and that helps but he shakes around me. Plus the fact that he is still in love with OW.<P>Our first court day is Tues. Our lawyers cannot agree already so I know it will be postponed for a little bit.<P>I do not think that he has thought this through except that it will benifit him and make him happy.....he is still in fantasy land and is even coming over tonight to bbq as a family. I put all his clothes out side in our extra van and he picked them up yesterday. I was hopeing that he would change his mind again and come home but he did not.<P>My friends and family say.....WAKE UP! He wants out. Give him the D and get on with your life. So am I in fantasy land? I keep reading here and he shows all the signs of MLC and affair...but can we make it, even after D.<P>I wonder if I am putting my life on hold for him But I am going back to college, I went back to work part time. I have lost weight, I have bought new clothes, had my first manicure, I am working out......so I am doing thinks for me.<P>I just keep wondering if I am in dream land, so I do not have to face the hurt that he does not want me, or our marriage.<P>I gotta go to work.......<P>Thanks All!

Hi My3Kids,<P>Getting over a relationship takes a great deal of time. Think of it this way. The divorce will take time. You are working on you and moving forward but at the same time leaving the door open for a chance to reconcile.

I think you are doing the right thing. I have conflicting thoughts every day about trying, staying, leaving. But I'm not waiting around for the sun to rise and set on him, and neither are you! I think we will both slowly get to where we are going and be further along because our steps in the right direction. Taking care of yourself is never a bad thing. Hang in there. Clarity will come.
