Re:Worst day of my life Blueyes424: Tweety,
I am so so very sorry that you are going through this. Remember that no matter what, we are all here for you. It sounds like you guys may be able to work things out. Counseling and "dating" sounds like a good, positive step in the right direction.
I will keep you in my thoughts, and wish you the best!!!!!!

Re:Worst day of my life twetifb: Thanks everyone for the hugs, I really need them today!
Re:Worst day of my life JimB: You "weren't supposed to leave".
I'm shaking my head at that one. I know it was an emotional moment when that was said, but sometimes precious nuggets of truth emerge during times of high stress. I hope that statement isn't indicative of the way he thinks of you and the marriage in general.
Anyway, good for you. I know you're worried about him, but think of it this way: time apart will give him an opportunity to find out that he really can function without you, and it'll give you an opportunity to live for yourself a bit.
Big hugs! You will be fine, no matter what happens!
Re:Worst day of my life teacherwriterguy: Those worst moments always have that surreal quality - can't believe it actually got there, that the conversations are being had, that those words are actually being said.
Like others have said, just remember how you've made some really strong decisions in the midst of a crisis, and that says a lot for how you are going to come through this, no matter what the end result.

I had two interpretations of what he meant by that. My first was that he was supposed to leave me by committing suicide. My husband had attempted it a couple times, the last time I actually found him and later found out that the doctors where shocked that he survived. My second understanding was that neither of us was supposed to leave, that we were supposed to be together for life. Which is what I had hoped for but we both need to "fix" ourselves, before we can fix "us." The latter hopefully being the outcome.
