[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Divorce.

He will be elated. The heavy foggy burden adhd burden of being a homeowner, parent and spouse will be lifted. He won’t know why he’s so elated, in fact he’ll blame you for not being this happy all along! But life will be better for everyone.

And then, he will take his misguided overconfidence and start dating. If he’s smart he’ll never live with another person again. If he’s dumb he’ll live with a woman and have more kids. And the heavy, fuzzy burden of adulthood will return to him, and ruin everyone’s lives. [/quote]

NP. Clearly the voice of personal experience speaking above. Damn. I'm genuinely sorry, PP. But you've nailed the scenario. I've seen two friends with DHs like OP's DH go through exactly what you describe, right down to "he'll blame you for his not being this happy all along" and "he'll take his misguided overconfidence and start dating."

OP, consider PP's post above and the been there, done that cautions it's giving you. Divorce is definitely an option, just be aware that you'll possibly end up villainized by DH when he realizes he's so much happier unmarried than he was married. You, and we, know that's not actually about you at all. Just be ready to counter that among your family and close friends. One friend's DH actually called up mutual friends to tell them all how great it was to be divorcing and how his wife had "held him back all along" blah blah. When he was exactly as you describe your own DH -- unable to deal with anything beyond himself. [/quote]
