You are sounding so much better! I know this is the hardest thing in life to get through, but your doing it. Pretty soon you'll be so liberated you'll wonder why you even had some of those thoughts!
Sometimes we have to try and put ourselves into thier shoes. I'm sure they are tacky shoes but we have to try right? So, can you imagine living with someone that is telling you how to make your every move concerning your life and your kids???
I know a bit of the background of your h. And right now all this is a novelty to him. These things wear off. I have this overwhelming feeling when I read the antics he is going through that when this wears off it's going to be CUT OFF QUICKLY!
Your a smart woman....how long could you actually endure having someone standing over your shoulders monitoring your phone calls concerning YOUR kids?? Not long I'm sure.
Be proud of the successes you are having in life right now. They may not seem like huge ones, but they are. You my dear, are moving forward, accepting the challenges with grace, dignity and fairness.
He is being told what to do, when to do it, and more than likely how it should be done. ICK! Those 3 lovely qualities in a relationship tend to EXPLODE right in thier faces.
I love the high road, I love the challenges. Yes the hurt and betrayal and the pain of the children make it difficult to keep to the high road, but the high road has no end, you just continue to exceed higher and higher. Those low skanky roads, well, they are full of potholes, rocks, nails and all of the other lowlife things.
I'll give it maybe 6 more months of him being told how to live his life before he dumps her. Be prepared.
Hugs to you!
