My husband of 24 years left just before Christmas and moved in with his father. The relationship had become toxic and we needed to separate. We have a 11 DS and 7 DD.
The house feels lighter now and despite me telling him I'm at peace and content he is continually telling me that I still love him and finding reasons to come round to fix things etc. said he refuses to give up 24 years I've looked him in eye and said don't love him anymore but he won't take it. Just wondering if this is a phase they go through till they realise it is over. Then I'm anxious for when that happens as suspect it will all get a bit messy and nasty.
He's only been round so much this last week as he has been sent home from his work to sort his head out. Keeps talking about big plans, joint bank accounts, holidays etc.
To add some context he literally locked himself away from family life, not showing up at weekends, staying in his own room. he showed i could be a single parent whilst he lived here.
Not sure what I'm asking just feeling a little alone and up thinking about it all
