RE: seeking advice
Hello "bowshot"
I'm really troubled by this. Not knowing any more than what you say in your post. I can only ponder. You say he left "our family" I'm assuming there were children?? I don't see how a guy like you describe could just run off. How long ago was this ? Where at? What was the relationship between you and your husband and him and his children like? I can't help but think a fellow with a passion for bowhunting would be the kind of guy that would do something like that. Bowhunters usually have a good deal of self-control.
Not knowing more, I'd have to conclude that it sounds a little fishy. Good luck!!!
