Thanks Neph,

I am making the extra effort for DD's sake, let alone DBing. I find that the actions I have taken has made W somewhat more "sane", and she is not as destructive as when this all started.

Mind you, she has seen OM four days in a row, Sun, Mon night, Tue night and tonight. This is after she softened somewhat at DD's party on Sunday afternoon.
Each time she has gotten home just before midnight.

She asked If I could look after DD tonight (Wed) as she had to work late. She knows I have accepted everything, and that I hate her lieing to me, but she just can't stop doing it.

I remember when we were in love, and dating, I don't think we ever spent 4 nights in a row together (staying out that late), especially during the week when she has to get up at 6 am. He must be some special peace of work to have her wrapped around his little finger. I just think that she must be so in love with him, and that nothing will change her mind, not now anyway. It just seems to be getting stronger, not weaker. I don't know for sure, but geez it looks that way.

It still irks me that he didn't bother buying DD a birthday gift, even though my W and him have been a couple for 11 months. And DD has been out with them numerous times, as a family.

Or maybe she is angry at my indifference, and not caring about what she does, that she is trying to be more obvious to get a reaction. Who knows?
