Hi I'm new

...See more Hi, I am new here. I am in a 16 year relationship with my husband, we have a 14 year old. Recently I became aware that our relationship has been based around emotional abuse all of these years, to varying degrees. We are 3 or 4 days into me asking for space and he has been sleeping in the basement. When he is home he is moping and acting very sad and hopeless. He has his first therapy session (ever) next Thursday. I feel responsible for his sadness and don't know what to do with myself or how to act around him. I very much want to spend time him tonight, have some fun out maybe. I want to comfort him and tell him it's going to be okay. But instead I gave him a hug and said I love without a kiss goodbye as I left to drop our daughter at work. Now I don't know if I should go home or hang around town for a bit. This is so incredibly hard
