[QUOTE="nlj, post: 622154, member: 17650"] Thanks COM and Cedar for the vote of confidence in our plans. That's a good idea to write down everything I want to say, ready for when I next speak to him and I like the suggestion of telling him how glad I am that he is coming. It is an issue about what I will do if his behaviour is appalling and I have to take him back early. If my husband is away that will be very difficult on a practical level. I really hope that this doesn't happen as I think it would create such a chasm between us that I'm not sure how we would build another bridge across it in the future. Previously I have put up with so much and 'bent over backwards' to pacify him, but, since finding this site, I no longer have any inclination to do this. I'm also not sure how I'm going to react if/when he starts emptying the fridge and cupboards to take back 'supplies' to the farm squat. He did this at Christmas and I helped him! (despite glares and grunts from my husband). I met a friend for lunch today. That was pleasant. I'm being nice to myself as per the advice! [/QUOTE]
