After months of going back and forth I left my husband today. Me and the kids are staying with my parents.

I talked about things last night, when I initially told him I didn't think we could work things out. Today I had him call me when he got off work so that I could read him a note I had written listing my reasons for leaving. After reading it, he proceeded to tell me why he thought we could still work it out and what he thought we needed to do to fix things.

We ended up being on the phone for 1.5 hours. I feel like he promised the moon and stars. But I doubt he will live up to it. For now I am committed to living separately - if there really will be R, he's going to have to show me he can fight for me.

I've seen this story before and I'm pretty sure I know the ending.

Sending you support! Whatever will happen, will happen. Move forward with your plan, don't listen to any of his words. If his actions someday convince you otherwise, then great, but words are meaningless. You are doing the right thing!

Good luck

sending so much love. this sounds exactly like my situation right now. you're not alone and you are strong! you were strong enough to get yourself and children out of a dysfunctional situation and you will continue to be strong no matter what direction you decide to go in.

Together since Dec 2005

Never be ashamed of a scar. It simply means you were stronger than whatever tried to hurt you.

My husband is seeing an SA counselor and attending an addicted men's group once a week.

I think. I know he is capable of lying to me.

He has told me his goal is to get back together but he has not pressured me at all. I think he knows he is not trustworthy yet.

He has asked what it will take for me to take him back. I told him I don't know and I don't know if it's even possible.
