Secret planning to leave DH - days to go .

Mydoghasbettereyebrowsthanme · 03/07/2020 15:34

Hi there - previous thread started with DH AWOL , arrested for drink driving . Final straw for me in out marriage , planning to leave in secret on Thursday. 6 days to go . Feeling shit about everything - pain the kids will have to go through , pain and upset his family and him . Wishing he was a reasonable person enough that we could separate amicably. Wishing I could predict which way this is going to go- hating the double life I am currently leading .Sad started this thread just for the hand holding whilst the proverbial hits the fan over the next 7 days !

Delurking to say, I hope all went to plan and he left for golf. Or you told him straight and left with him knowing. Either way I hope your all safe and in your new home. Flowers

I hope you made it out according to plan.

Mydog will be far too busy unpacking and sorting out her happy DCs to be able to get to us for a while.
Hopefully they are all enjoying a cuddle and a takeout together.

If she hasn't managed to sort some excuse out, she'd be back on the thread by now telling us it's bad news. Hopefully she's busy moving out.

I'm in Trumpville and woke up this morning with you on my mind, OP. Fingers still crossed that today has gone as well as it could. We are all sending you strength!

I hope that silence means that it's all gone to plan and she is busy sorting out kids and new place.

Kevinbaconsrealwife · 09/07/2020 18:25

I really hope you are in your new home, safe and happy x

picklemewalnuts · 09/07/2020 18:25

I bet there will be a huge Adrenalin slump to deal with, as well as explanations for the children.

Thanks

Hope it went to plan today, one way or another. This is the first day of freedom. You might not be able to enjoy it yet, but I really hope you'll be able to look back on this day with a smile.

Icepinkeskimo · 09/07/2020 18:38

Been thinking about you all day OP, like so many people I truly hope you and the kids are ok, and it all went to plan.

Just think tomorrow is a beautiful new day.
