I'll have to say that I am a very happy person. Most who know me will agree. As for healthy...well, I'm getting over a cough right now, but other than that, I believe I'm pretty hale and hearty or however the saying goes.
And I hate to say it, but yes, I'd rather take trips with friends instead of with him. I find that whenever I go on a trip with him, we inevitably get into an argument that somewhat ruins the whole point of vacation anyway. And I despise having to hear about business plans while on vacation, which is an enduring (definitely NOT endearing) habit of his. When he's out of town, I don't really miss him, possibly because he's always out anyway when he's in town.
I am taking KD's thoughts about the ebb and flow of love into consideration too. That's why I've pretty much decided at this point to wait it out another few months to see how I feel. I don't know if I want to approach him to talk about this though; I can see the whole conversation blowing up in my face (he's not very open to criticism or what he interprets as criticism).
And I also remember that warm happy flush you're talking about. I used to have it, used to anticipate his coming home. Sadly, I haven't had those feelings in quite a while now.
Asscherisme, I'm really sorry to hear about your unhappiness with your marriage. I hope all works out for the best. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me.
I really appreciate everyone sharing their thoughts and experiences. It gives me something to draw on when the time comes for me to make the decision, hopefully soon, and hopefully the right one. In the meantime, I'm going to work on building back up my own life and making some new friends.
