Break

Dec 02, 2007 14:10

So, my office closes down half-day on December 21st, and we don't open again until January 2nd. That gives me a nice amount of time off. I really want to spend Christmas w/Ramsie and her boys and the rest of her family in Flag. I would love to be there when her boys wake up Christmas morning and Santa has come.

I also would love to spend New Year's ( Read more... )

It speaks well of your character to worry about your husband even when your relationship is on the outs.

*hugs and supports*

*Snugs* Thanks Kitty. I needed that.

Blacknickel hit it right on the head. That speaks volumes. Plus, you're better than he is. Wouldn't it be nice to have that in your corner in just one more instance of proof? I'd say discuss (if that's even something you two are capable of doing anymore) whether or not he has alternative plans since his family won't be around this year. If he does, come to AZ and do what you do. If not, then abandoning him would be weak and probably the wrong thing to do in compassion's eyes... Though at this point I don't see that you owe John very much. Still, being the bigger person is always the more proper choice in any situation if for no other reason than for karma and maturity's sake. Just know that none of us'll look down on you for making the decision you finally make on this matter.

Gropes and giggles,

PEACENESS!

So many roads, so little time....

It's a tough choice. Thank you for your support, either way.

It's what I do. :)

Christmas is a time for family and friends, not drama. Do what would make you happy.

I love you, and you know this-- however, he's evidently done nothing to make YOU happy, so why "be the bigger person" and be miserable? Honestly. It would be a waste.

That's my theory too, but what I want and what I should do are separate in my mind and heart. *sigh*

I agree that it's very compassionate of you to want John to have company on Christmas. May I suggest you use that compassion to direct a conversation asking John what he would like to do, discussing your desires, and trying to reach a mutually agreed on decision?

Is bringing him with you to AZ an option?
