Update:

WAW came home angry because the kids were "in her face" all weekend. She usually dumps the kids with a relative or sitter when she has them but this weekend she had no choice but to be with them. That prompted her to say that she needs to look at the custody arrangements again and that I may have to take more than 50%. I will take 100% if I can get it.
She told me that she now thinks that we will get back together in a few years.... after she has time and space to explore and sort things out. Why does she say things like that?
She has finally agreed to move out. I looks like 8/1/08. She found an apartment locally and seems excited about it. She said this morning that she afraid to put down a deposit in case we decide to call this off. That is the first time that she has said anything about calling anything off. I said "as far as I know nothing has changed". She didn't say anything. There still may be a glimmer of doubt in her mind.
We have been getting along great. A definite stage 2 for awhile now. If it wasn't for the OM, I think that there would still be hope for us.
I can say that the MOST EFFECTIVE 180 that I have done was to totally accept the D, negotiate it in good faith and act like it was the greatest thing in the world. That has brought her closer to working on us than anything.

I miss my friends. Looks like I lost you moving to this Forum.
