Thank you Kiki.

I do feel that they have now put D9 right in the middle of this. That is so unfair.

I am particularly pissed off this morning. I guess they had nothing esle to get D9 "on their side" so this is the tatic they chose. Shameful.

I do plan on sitting down with D9 when she gets home and explain to her that yes, I did file, but there are reasons why and no, this is not what I wanted at all. I am going to tell her that I stayed in NJ for a year hoping that STBX would change his mind and try to work on our R and he chose not to. That her dad has been dating ow for over a year and that I did not come to this decision rashly. I have never told hre that what her dad is doing is wrong but I think I am now. That dating / living with another woman while he is still M is wrong. That I filed for D for legal reasons and that I felt it was in the best interest for me and her and D5. That I never tried to hide it from her but felt it was between me and her dad and she didn't need to be in the middle.

Oh crap, I don't know what to say. Any ideas????

Love,
Shades
