Dear Elizabeth:

“I’ve always been my own toughest critic”, and you are your estranged husband’s apologetic:

“Up until this point he’s been incredibly loyal and trustworthy”- until he wasn’t).

“I don’t believe that this is who  he is as a person”- but it is him who left you and is with another woman, not an alien who  possesses his body, like in sci-fi movies.

“I think he’s  going through some kind of existential crisis”- but there are always crises in people’s lives. Can’t have that “carefree lifestyle” forever, after all. We get sick, we age, we lose people in our lives, we lose jobs, and so forth.

Let’s say his relationship with the other woman doesn’t work out and he comes back to you, what then?
