I agree with lwb. I wouldn't worry about the MIL testifying. She sounds kind of nutty and I'm thinking, most people will dismiss what she would say as being biased, and she sounds a little nutty so I'm thinking that might even help you!

About the evil thing. I've thought about that too. Why when my H left the marriage and took up with OW, and abandoned his kids for the most part, would he be so nasty & rude to me? You'd think after the kind of stuff our S do that at least they'd be nice about it!!! I can't really say b/c I don't really understand their thinking, but I'm thinking they kind of have to believe you're the bad guy in this and they're the victim, b/c they def. don't want to think they're the bad guy in this. It's your fault the marriage fell apart, there was nothing they could do, it just happened, and it's easier to blame us than to look at themselves maybe.

One of our mutual friends told me tonight that H hadn't talked to him for a really long time, was acting very cold, but a couple days ago was friendly to our friend for some reason. Said he was surprised. I can't explain this kind of stuff either!!! Karen
