PJ, How long have you been seperated? Has the OM been in the picture the whole time....was your WAW having a EA/PA? I'm trying to get a feel for where she is at in all of this. It took me a good 4 months after I left to get past the anger stage and start to think twice about my decision. This happened after 6-8 months of anger build up inside the marriage.
I think/feel it's a positive sign you haven't heard from a lawyer from her side, and she doesn't want a court battle. This to me indicates there could be some hesitation on her side. That is just my two cents.
As hard as it is to see what she has done to your family, be patient. Don't push her or argue. Detatch, with love. As soon as my H stopped calling, begging, pleading...and detatched and started to GAL of his own...that is when I truly had time to reflect on my decision and look at what I had done. It was then I realized what a big fat mistake I had made.
Kudos to you for wanting to keep your family together. You are not wrong for wanting to keep your family together. You are wanting to stay true to vows you made...nobody can blame you or critize you for doing that. As long as you stay true to yourself, and honest with yourself...that is all that matters. In the end, we are only judged by One. He, above all would want you to keep your family together.
You will be in my thoughts and prayers Questions just ask! We are all here to help and encourage eachother
Take care hugs Christarn
