I had that exact fear for a long time ladybugnessa. What would I do if he called my bluff?! I extended that bluff a few times until last Sunday when something in me snapped. Know what...it's not the end of me, just the end of the marriage. I have 2 boys, a house and a car as well as animals, but no job. I'm worried, but I'm not as fearful as I was waiting to see what mood he was in. I was wound tighter than a spring. The inherent stress is still there but I am hugely relieved too. Many conflicting emotions but I'm not anxious about his impact on my life now. I'm feeling freer. Its all my decisions and I don't have to carry my phone around in case I miss his call. I don't have to keep checking that I've missed an email. My 'what if' happened but it wasn't as bad as I expected.

Your AH is a pilot?  OMG, that is terrifying.  I wish his employers knew about his alcoholism. 

Calling you 28 times in one day sure shows how "sane" he is, doesn't it?  So much effort to try to persuade you to deny the truth.

Hugs.
