Hi good folks, yet another handwritten letter from my then estranged wife. Written 3 weeks after she had moved in with the other man. My additions are in brackets, and I got to know one of my clients called Robert very well, and he wrote her a letter after I asked him to! He sent it to my address for me to forward on to Liz.

Dear Delboy, Thanks for your letter and the verse ‘Risk’ which I’ve read many times (before) but this time it brought tears to my eyes. I did not know that I had total freedom.
I am really pleased that your business is taking off and you are making a profit, all your hard work is at last paying off.
I received a letter off Robert telling me about himself and how highly he regards your (R…..) service, he can never express how grateful he is and that you should be highly valued for your gift (talent). He seems like a real genuine man.
I will not be seeing my counsellor this week due to half term, I find that talking about my feelings really does help. It’s a pity that I didn’t do it before. I will need more than 6 weeks. She asked me last week what did I want, I said “to be friends with Delboy and to see the girls”.
You say that marriage guidance counselling would help. I will leave it to you to make an appointment.
Take care
Liz
P.S. I don’t hate you as much as you think (I do).
(And as you might guess she didn’t/wouldn’t come to Marriage counselling with me).
I am still new to all of this MLC stuff. Im only about 7 months into my W's MLC/WAS.
Please post a link to your thread so I may learn from it. Is that letter typical MLC/WAS crap. Hold out the carrot and then yank it away at the last minute?
It sounds cruel however, it does show where she is, at the moment. Sounds like she is/was feeling you out a little bit to see where you stood on the R.
You said in the post, "my then estranged wife". Did you two reconcile? I hope that is the case.
Hi BKS, Sorry I don't have active thread (s) other than the ones that are shown in MLC forum at the moment.
Could you please put up a Link to your thread?
My wife finally divorced me in Nov 2006 after she kept changing her mind and lawyers etc. The only time she contacted me (since May 04) was in Nov 05 and July 06 and that was just so she could have more access to our youngest D.
Late July last year me and youngest dropped off her OM lawnmower that me and youngest fixed for free, they just paid for the parts. When we dropped it off I kept the engine running in the van, youngest unloaded it and ex W came to the back of the van and said " Thank You" to me! Thats the only contact in the past 7 years.
