Midst of D, R even further on the downswing

[NoDirection]

I have had a lot of experience with taking the high road... My STBX still likes to initiate verbal altercations in front of our S. Even this Saturday she started and even though I was bascially forced to leave my S to stop the altercation, I knew it was the right thing to do.

As for the whole dating thing, you are exactly right. If it is meant to be, they will be there when things are said and done.

As for court, my STBX is already off to a bad start. On our initial court date, she was late and had to called in from the waiting area. When we tried to work out a visitation schedule, she refused and then stared a hole through me in the courtroom. Finally when the judge made mention to her about not being late, she snapped back at her. I hate to say it but she is a piece of work...
