I don&#8217;t even remember the last time I posted, suppose it was sometime over the weekend. I would just like some thoughts as to what a few of you think. When he first moved out on a Friday, for the third time, he said this was it. He had made his choice, he loves both of us, but prefers her. By Monday he was calling telling me how confused he was and how much he missed me and that he was thinking of me when with her now. That had never happened to him the first two times he moved out, he only missed the kids then, now he misses me too and it makes him confused as all heck. He said what he really wanted was some time away from both of us so he could sort his feelings out. I think I&#8217;m being pretty good about that, I don&#8217;t really know if he&#8217;s holding her to it or not because I have told myself that I won&#8217;t ask any questions about them (at least I try my hardest).<p>Last weekend, I went to a hotel and WH stayed at house with kids. He took them swimming on Sunday and asked me to meet him to swap the kids at the pool. I told him (in a nice way) that I had plans and since he wasn&#8217;t living at home anymore and I&#8217;d have to deal with everything for at least the next week until we decided what to do for the next weekend, that he would have to bring the kids home when they were done swimming.<p>He couldn&#8217;t have been too mad because when he brought them home he gave me a hug and we all sat and talked about their weekend. He went to our bedroom and laid on the bed. I laid down near him and he put his arms out to hold me. That feels so good. Of course, one thing lead to another and, anyway, I guess he wasn&#8217;t mad at me.<p>He left, told the kids he had to go to the office. We&#8217;re playing that game again, he goes to the office late and works out early in the morning. He did come home in the A.M. to get the kids on the bus and we talked for a little while Monday morning before he left for work. Later in the day he called and something he said really disturbed me. He said &#8220;If I come back I&#8217;ll be spending the rest of my life making it up to you&#8221;. <p>He didn&#8217;t come home Tuesday morning for the bus but he did call and the first thing out of his mouth was &#8220;I miss you&#8221;. I told him I missed him and loved him too, but I also told him that what he said about making it up to me for the rest of his life disturbed

Hi, <p>A bit of a waffle again but this time in the right direction. You seem like you are handling it well. Keep it up!!!<p>Is the OW still in the pix? If yes, there may be an LB from her soon. <p>Brace for the storm. But enjoy the good weather. Looks like clear skies may be coming your way! [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img] <p>
