Last night I dreamed we were moving house. When I woke up I was disappointed to find it was only a dream, then I remembered that we really were moving house and I was excited again. Except the house in my dream was nicer than the actual one we're going to, but never mind.
We've been tossing about an odd idea. G said that if he promises to get professional help for his behaviour, perhaps we could continue a relationship, but in separate houses. Many of our problems seem to stem from living together and my girls. If we sort of started 'dating' again like we used to, maybe things would be better.
There is still love there and it would be nice to have Mr Nice without Mr Nasty. But it's an odd set-up and G is already talking about it not being long-term, just a temporary thing. As far as I am concerned, I don't think I ever want to move back in with him, or at least not for a very very long time. I'm not sure it's a good idea. It might be better to make a clean break.
But then again, it might be nice to be sort of friends with benefits...
But I have told him that Mr Grumpy is NOT welcome in my house under any circumstances!!
How are things going? You haven't posted in a while and I hope you are settled into your new place enjoying life once again xx.
ReplyDeleteOh that is sooo difficult. When my husband left us he still wanted to live with us though. I was very distraught about it! But part of me liked the feeling of "playing house" with him still. and like you said,.. It is nice to have physical company. I am so glad for the clean break! Maybe just taking sometime off and living in different houses,... no that is just wishful thinking. Perhaps though, it is a great opition for you. I hope that the space it creates works well for you all.
