I'm so not enlightened. I can't figure my H out but I've stopped trying for the most part. It's hard. Some days suck. Everyone tells me to be patient and give him time - so...there you go. Be patient and give her time. She needs time to heal from the issues.

Sounds like your W might just need some time to see some changes.

I know, but I read somewhere that she called herself WAW too. It's cool.

Well my W did go straight to D, I have the papers, remember? She just hasn't done anything, except our one meeting, since - in 2 months! I know she needs time, I saw it in her eyes when we met. She's still there, the W I know and love, I'm just surprised she hasn't done anything when in the meeting she was so adamant about just getting this overwith (early in the meeting, she softened from that as we went along) I thought I'd have something from her by now. I'm glad I don't, just surprised. \:o

And talking it out and being with me even just a little bit won't help? Pushing the envelope just a little to get her to see me, won't help? Again, just curious. It seems like a little "me time" couldn't hurt, but then again, I'm here with you guys, so... \:D

For us - H said he hurts when he sees me and it brings it all to the forefront again. You may not be what she needs to see right now...sorry.

LOL, once the hops residue clears out of your brain, you'll be just like new again! \:D

That's what I thought. That seems like the logical thing. If I was her and really wanted to be divorced, we'd be divorced! I mean even her dad, early on, said she was just going to step right through it and get it done. Yet, here we are. I do take lot of positives from that. And from the meeting we had, and from the way her family is treating me. They're tiny things, but by small and simple things do great things come to pass.

Don't be sorry, it's quite OK - I'm sure you're right. If she wanted to see me, she would. I'm sure it's just my need to fix things sneaking in again.

Jazz, her family is seeing the changes, and the 180's, I'm sure they're reporting to her. So it's cool...

Yep, and it went ok I think. I got a hug from her mom, and she said, "We'll always love you." So I got that going for me.

You think that's good?

One weird thing was last time I dropped off S4, I had to go to my SIL's house. She and her husband invited me in and we chatted for like 30 minutes? That was strange to me, doesn't seem like behavior of someone who's sister is about to divorce this guy...I don't know, I don't analyze anymore... ;\)

It is strange, my IL's and SIL / BIL, all know that we are living completely seperate, but when I talk to them or see them, you would never know. It is like nothing in the world is going on or that a D is possible.
Makes me wonder sometimes if they know more about what is going on with W than they will ever tell me.

It's a quandry, no doubt.

Shoot, if it was me and my SIL was picking up her kid at my house, I'd be like, Hi, Bye! That's it!

Well, as I've said before, they don't have any more say over what happens than we do, so it's really, probably, pretty unimportant. I enjoy chatting with them (a 180 in and of itself) and it's not like I'm missing out on anything else by being nice to them. I really am trying to treat everyone better, not just my W. It's good practice.
