I'm so sorry to hear that. I can't fathom walking away from the mother of my children (speaking hypothetically, but the point is still valid). As much as I want a wife and family someday, to leave that, and over such a minor, minor spat strikes me as utterly baffling.

Is he open to any sort of communication as to why he has reached this absurd conclusion of his? It strikes me as...off...that he would deem your marriage, such a major life factor, as unfixable over a piece of furniture. I don't want to pile additional stress onto you, but is there anything he would have prior to this that may be a factor? I...again, I don't want to cause you to be upset or worried or anything like that...but do you think it possible he's using this as a sort of scapegoat "out" for any other reason? Or possibly that he's concerned or stressed with the due date so close? My stepfather was incredibly irritable prior to my sister being born, but once she was here, he sort of "reverted" back to normal. Just kicking around possibilities as to his rationale.

But I do know, sincerely, that you CAN do this...I am not going to lie or gloss things over and say it's going to be easy, and I wish I could offer you more advice as to the "how to" of things, but I know you can do this. Just try not to give up hope...there's always light at the end of the tunnel.

Know you're in my thoughts and prayers, and if I can do anything for you, feel free to PM me. And welcome to PC. I am glad you found us.

Hugs,
Harley
