Thanks for the support. I'm pretty sure my W's tears were not for me, but I am hoping she'll continue to be saddened by the separation as this goes along.
I know I need to be her friend right now and support her, but if I agree too much with her on things, then I'll run out of time. I need to stretch this out as much as I can to give myself any hope of her having a change of heart or an awakening.
Just like with her 1st marriage, she wants this to be quick, clean and done so she can act like the past never happened and start again.
I'm so sad. I guess I should have seen this coming because of her past patterns. I'm pretty sure she's been planning this for a while and why she decided to end it before giving me my full year is beyond me. I'm pretty sure there is an OM because w/o one she wouldn't be able to go on her own. She never has and she's definitely unstable right now. She needs the outlet and as long as the OM is around, she won't have to face up to anything else.
Custody is the next hurdle and I've got to stick to the best interests of my D on this one. The sad fact is that may force me to take on the W which will most likely kill all hope of saving this marriage and heading off this divorce.
The worst week is over, so now it is just on to next week. If I can string it out for a year, I only have to survive another 51 weeks of this, so I'll start counting down now.
