M 8 years Wife has been having A's since 2006. I can't count the number! Spent time in rehab in 2006..attempted suicide 9/15/08 she wants out after 3 A's in less than 30 days; all different men. 12/01/08 informs of new BF (OM) that she wants to introduce kids to. Took him to FIL's house for Thanksgiving.
Latest post from earlier tonight:
the W actually picked the kids up from school today and took them home. gave me some time to run some errands and sit in traffic (Yay!) She came home to help with some of the financials we need to settle before a D is filed.
Before we got started, I was making dinner and starting some laundry. I heard her talking to someone and not to a kid. She was on her cell phone in front of the kids. I asked who she was talking to;
she replied by name, "It's <OM>." I asked her, "Do you mind?"
She told him that she had to go and she would call him later. Then she came to me and said "It's alright, he doesn't know where I'm at."
Me: I don't care about what he knows or doesn't know. It's completely disrespectful to talk to him in front of me and the kids in our home. W: No response, she turned the convo into inane banter and talk about the Christmas presents.
So after we were done with the finances for the night; I asked her if she was going to stick around for a while. She said she was staying for a little bit.
Me: Then I'm going to Wal-Mart to buy the Millennium Falcon. W: OH HELL NO, last time YOU went to WAL-MART; you were gone 2.5 hours.
Me: WTF? So what? W: well I have to be outta here by 9:20 because I have to pick dysfunctional BFF from work. Her car is in the shop. A tree fell on it.
Me: Well, I'll see you later. Be back soon.
So I went to Wal-mart, bought the Millennium Falcon and then went to have a beer.
I came home, she left. So great that she loves watching the kids, NOT!!
Here are three responses afterward before the lock.

I wish I had something constructive to say. Unfortunately, all I can say is that I commend you on how well you handle these interactions. It is seriously impressive. Could you bottle that up and send it to the rest of us? ;\)
I hope you have a wonderful day tomorrow.
Take care, and God bless. I will remember you in my prayers tonight.
