Ann, Its hard to be friends with someone who's destroyed the family and seems to be saying its better for all concerned and seems to be using the friendship to promote this. She seems to be thinking - "this is nice, we can be friends ... maybe I can now get the money I want more easily ...".

Every which way I look there are divorced women and "counselors" who will probably casually validate whatever she's done. So I'm wondering if her cooling off comes more from these sources than from my efforts. In other words her ranting and raving was associated with the guilt of a WAW but after talking with a bunch of these "enablers" for months like the kids' teachers, people she works with, neighbors, etc. who feed her the usual lines: "kids are resilient ...", "its better for the kids there are no arguments ...", "you don't divorce your kids ...", "you'll feel better in time, I promise you ...", "you look good ...". Note I'm not even considering OM in the equation.

Sorry I had to vent a bit ... been taking it on the chin too long.
