[quote=Anonymous]He is being selfish. I went through this when my kid was much younger than yours. What got me through was focusing on what I could control, and that was me. I advocated for my kid, and being positive and definitely not hating on dad was the most important thing to the kid. Years later, he's still upset about why we're not together. I guess that's a good thing, because in front of him we try to get along, even if we disagree on things later.

He's clearly trying to figure out how to be the good guy and deal with feelings that he's missing something in life. There are so many great books that discuss these feelings if he would only read them.

But for your own sanity, work on you. Go back to focusing on how to be calm, happy, and strong. You can't control him. Separating and divorce are so stressful- I practically had a breakdown. Stayed strong for the kids sake, and personal therapy helped so much. The goal was about being healthy for myself, not "saving" the marriage.[/quote]
