What’s the story where a man leaves his wife and family for no particular reason?

Family
Alex asked:


If I remember correctly, he just wants to see what will happen. He checks into a hotel and watches his family grieve and move on. He intends to go back but never actually does until eventually, his family doesn’t recognize him in the street.

    It’s a story by Nathaniel Hawthorne. The title is Wakefield. I don’t think all of your details are exact, but that’s the story.

    Rabbit Run by John Cheever(or John Updike)..
