Now-looking, you're right. About a half hour before W showed up I was shaking, but it wasn't at all bad.
And that's the weird part. We had a GREAT dinner/conversation. We laughed, shared, disagreed. We both commented and gave opinions on what each other was doing. If anyone had been watching us, they would have said "they're in love." But no, we were discussing our divorce.
I realize it's the influence of the OM, at least I think I realize that, but I don't think I understand the power of that influence.
Anyway, she's going to buy me out of the house and was willing to offer a mostly fair deal, so I took it. I don't have the cash to buy her out so this way is easier. We discussed a little about splitting up possessions, but decided to deal with it later. She acted like she was about to cry a couple of times but never did. Steely resolve.
She said she was going to ask a friend of mine to serve the papers. Also said that her mother wanted to call me and asked if that'd be okay. What do I say to her mother? I was bending over backwards to save the marriage and your daughter was a b*tch and is having an affair?
Anyway, it's over. As far as DBing, I think she definitely picked up on the fact that I'm moving on and that I'm refinding my ambitions.
