recently found this power in me. The W got angry and didn't like that I was standing up for myself, but I tell you what --- I'm walking on water right now and my confidence and self-respect has SKY ROCKETED.
To add to my recent statement, I did appear to push W 'over the edge' with showing my backbone. She didn't like not being in full control and is lashing back pretty bad right now. PDT tells me she is testing me with threats of filing right away and to stick it out.
Here's what I do know: I feel better than I have in years! If I had known how standing up for myself and holding my ground was going to affect my confidence, I would have done it weeks ago - if not years (I simply didn't know what I didn't know). I realize the outcome may not be what I originally wanted, but I find that my self-confidence is now more valuable than what I presumed the marriage to be.

Yes it was. In florida you get 30 minute storms. In texas you get day long or multiple day storms.
I think yesterday reaffirmed how far removed my W is emotionally from me.
Its made me rethink some things of which I won't say right now as I still continue to ponder some new thoughts.
