Re: my story surprised: Thanks everyone. I really wish he would call, though. I'm finding the days I work to be much harder. I feel like every weekend (when I work) is a setback. I just want to hear from him.

Agree. This is the hardest thing to do. I did this. I hoped he would "become responsible". I wanted him to miss me. I wanted him to change.
In my case, it wasnt meant to be.
Re: my story surprised: Well, I really hope we can have a happy ending eventually. I just can't let this hope die. I don't know how long it will take before I feel normal again. I just feel so pathetic. All I want is to talk to him, but I know I can't call him. And my friend who I've been leaning on rather heavily through all of this is in New York for the holiday weekend, so I feel a little lost. It's just, it's been 5 days since we've spoken, and that's the longest stretch we've had since all of this started. I know it will mean more if I let him call me, but it's really hard to not pick up the phone.
Re: my story sosad05: "No contact" is the hardest thing you'll ever do. Thats what I did from day 1. I wonder if I would have continued contact if he would have fought for us and made changes. But, I think it was like beating a dead horse. Thats how I know it had to be the right decision. No contact gets easier as time goes on.
