Been an intersting couple of weeks. She's decided to "stall" on my requests for the trailer keys to go camping etc. She doesn't reslize it but slowing down the speed of the divorce was one of my primary goals. She came over last night to get some things (and walk through the house), I had a block party saturday night and had quite a few people over. She sat home by herself apparently (stewing). Despite a picture of his truck in front of her 1 bdrm appt at 05:00 she still insists they're just friends, but I suspect he was supposed to come over last weekend but got cold feet. I said I missed her as she was leaving (she started to tear up) then she sped away down the alley. I always compliment her on her looks (she's looking beaten down though) and call her beautiful. It's easy to say because it's true.
We took the kids to a counsellor on Thursday and she went on and ona bout how our son has all this anger. So the counsellor sat me and him down alone and we talked,he was very pleasant, siad how much he enjoys being at Dad's etc. front and center on the counsellor's desk was DB. I commented on it and we discussed WAW etc, she seemed surprised (wife has been here at least 3 visits w/o me...gives me wrong dates etc). She asked a few more questions and I commented how we had only been separated since Nov and was served on Feb 18 (She was really surprised).
W then came in and we talked. I commented about how there is another person involved etc, she wouldn't make eye contact with me. She was talking about how we need to get this D over with soon etc, the counsellor changed the topic. I thought it went very well, W didn't look too impressed though.
I still miss and love her very much, and know this is the right thing to do, but it seems to be harder every week. She seems to soften slightly then harden right back up. We're both out of money now and i haven't even done my Statement of defense, nor has she completed her financial disclosure forms.
