STBXW occasionally chafes at the notion I might be truly involved with our S's, and then she starts making noises about curtailing my custody, as if a court of law would automatically side with her. She wants full decisional rights over our S's lives and if I ever voice an objection to her actions regarding them (such as rejuggling their daycare seemingly ever three to four months), she takes offense for my "interference" and threatens to sue me for sole custody. My threads outline the day-to-day insanity I have had to endure in this mounting custody battle, but I understand not wanting to wade through all that. Right now things seem quiet but once the divorce is final, I am certain STBXW will launch the next phase of her legal war on me, for primary custody.
But you know the reality is that's never going to happen. Either she doesn't realize that or she says stuff like that just to make you mad? I would just go NC as much as possible with her. And your marriage wasn't over a year ago or whatever when your W said it was. That's just a rationalizing trick or whatever, the WAS tells themselves so they won't feel guilt over their bad behavior! (Mine did that too of course). Gee, if he hadn't started an affair and getting a girlfriend, maybe he wouldn't have decided the marriage was hopeless??? How's it going with you. I'm starting to get more proactice with the D so hopefully we can get it done and over with sometime this year!!!! Karen
