NoDirection, Yes I totally understand, and unfortunately, it sounds very familiar, your sitch is mirroring mine in a lot of ways. Your W is acting/has acted just like mine has/did, the denial, the putting on an act, giving you the sense that she doesn't want the M, etc.

Now here is something that I think you really should do, when W wants to leave, just let her, but however, for your son's well being, don't let her take him with her, anymore. If she gives you any guff about it, just tell her that you just want more time with him, try to keep things from getting volatile. More than likely, if you approach it in a way that shows that you only want what is best for your son, and are not attacking her, she will give a little, and with hope, let you keep him with you.

I know that we never expected to find ourselves here, but I am also thankful for Michele and DB'ing, It has been big part of my healing, through the friends that I have made here, you included. I have become more balanced since I found found this site, talking with others who are where you at, or have been there, makes a world of difference. You feel like your not alone in all of this. I will continue to be here for you, and keep you in my prayers. Take care.
