Throughmyeyes,
That's very good news, in my opinion, that you were able to drive past his car without falling apart. It sounds like you are healing with your sense of self still intact. Bravo!
There's no telling when or if he will ever get out. Even if he walks away, he will still have what someone else I used to post with called "fleas," until he addresses them with a professional. In other words, he may still hang onto many of the tendencies, thought patterns, and traits for a long time. I still have "fleas," and I try to rid myself of them whenever I notice myself thinking in circles over a situation, using L.E. logic. It drives me half nuts, sometimes.
Congrats again on your progress. You are sounding strong!
