Its not OK that...
You left your family
You have devastated your kids
You left me with all the memories of our time together
You left me wondering what I'm going to do with my life without you
You only call or see your kids when it is convenient for you and your new life
You left me wondering how I'm going to take care of selling our home and belongings by myself
You have me questioning the last few years of what I thought were happy times (apparently you were thinking of someone else)
You left me with too much debt
You left me doubting myself
You made me feel paranoid about what you were doing when not with me
You threw away your life as though the last 23 years meant nothing to you
You didn't appreciate all I did for you and that I was always there for you
You don't care that I still love you

" You're right it's not okay. These are questions you will probably never get answers to--especially if you are expecting them from him. For if he acknowledged those questions and answers them then he would have to take responsibility for his actions. It is obvious you are the hurting. I hate that any of us have to go through this type of anguish. It isn't fair, it's life. If we never took chances we would miss out on great joy as well as great pain. You have your children--they will be a blessing to you. Just hang in there. I would also make sure there is a schedule of when he can pick them up. If he is not there on time. Then leave a note and you and your kids go to the mall or a movie. Let him know you are not accomodating his lackadazial (sp) attitude. He either is there in a timely manner or he is not going to get the kids. Make sure he understands that---you may have to talk real sllooowwww. "
