Another locked thread....I guess that means this thing is dragging on.....
It looks like it is almost unanimous that I should stay. Unfortunately, the guy that has the final say is me. I understand the opinions that each of you have expressed. If someone wants to screw around, I could argue that the fact that there is a spouse at home makes it easier when kids are involved. I am still leaning towards leaving because I think it is the only shopt I have left.

Last night we talked for a couple of hours....she really has a high opinion of herself...which is not a bad thing per se but she has nothing to prove to me anyway. She has an air of arrogance about her. Pretty weird becasue she is not exactly cultured or wordly and it shows sometimes. Bu that is neither here or there. Again a pretty good evening without the good night kiss and hug etc. That is the last thing on my mind right now.
I was supposed to get us an appointment to see a lawyer for a preliminary meeting. She asked me if I called with a smile on her face. I told her I did but did not get a response......she was not sure I was telling the truth.....weird.
The house if full this AM. Both stepdaughters are here....D7 is at school. the oldest already has shared something with me that i am not comfortable with regarding her recent breakup with her boyfriend and sleeping wth her old boyfriend...there goes that apple again.....i need to make sure that i break the "spell" with D7 and instill in her some decent values.
