He came to pick up some stuff. They were pretty big stuff and since I knew he shared a small apartment with someone (only has room for a twin bed in his bedroom) I asked where he was going to put all this stuff. He told me he had just moved to a new bigger place. He lives in someone's basement. He left his old apartment because someone shot a couple rounds and one bullet ended up in a chair in the living room. He was on the phone and saw it. Crazy.
Anyway, he didn't stay long. I am so glad I am not with this man anymore. I would have had a very sad life. He had a shittty childhood and as a result, wants 100% perfect happiness. He told me indirectly that the super life he had imagined he would have once single isn't happening. Also, the cat that I ended up keeping was afraid of him and wanted nothing to do with him when he used to be glued to him before. He loves the cat and I am sure he was hurt. All in all, I felt sorry for XH. He has been slowly realizing that me or the marriage weren't the cause of his unhappiness.
