[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Definitely affair territory. And men are likely to want to overthrow their current family and start a new one ... Keep an eye out and listen to your gut!![/quote]

It’s this.
Stop asking him what’s wrong and nagging and accusing.
Just start treating him the way you did before he was “yours”—
I know I’ll get pushback for saying this, but it’s really often as simple as that.
Engage. Attend. Be present FOR HiM and behave in ways that make him want to be around you more, not less.[/quote]

Don’t do this. You don’t have to please someone who treats you less than dirt or an afterthought. You have full permission, OP, to just do things that make you and your kids happy, on your own whims and schedule. Build your life up, with his participation or not. Build your kids up so they know they have you, regardless. If he refuses to engage with therapy or you, realize that’s his choice, believe him, and as painful as it is, keep moving forward FOR YOU. It’s not up to you to beg or persuade or convince him of anything. It’s hard to contemplate but knowing and acting that way is so freeing. [/quote]
