Gosh, Buster, you are turning into your W's father!!! This sitch reminds me of a parent trying to keep their daughter from dating another boy or having him in the house.

Do not contact social services. Talk with a lawyer.

You asked me in an earlier post what do I consider the "end." To me, the end of a marriage is when it's finalized. Then the marriage is over. Other people have different ideas of what the end is. Some people figure the end is when they announce they want a divorce. I think your W feels this way. She sees the marriage as over, and so far you are still doing things that are making her angry and even more determined to divorce you.

I have to leave for Jacksonville tomorrow so I'll be gone for a week and won't have a chance to keep up with your sitch. Good luck. I wish you'd try to detach, but I've come to realize that not everyone can.


There is no arriving, ever. It is all a continual becoming.
