I just think she is in a no win position. Most of her family/friends are buying her cover story and giving her the "There is no way H will get custody" advice/support... how funny it will be for her if she loses custody.

Her attorney came on strong at first as if they were gearing up for war so I'd better surrender... then they left scurrying from the first hearing with nothing they expected.

Once they saw I was geared up for war and they had forgotten their ammunition they have been in the fetal position ever since.

I sort of expected she'd at least fight... or they would at least try something. Even my attorney is baffled and wondering if maybe they have some secret weapon which is why they aren't offering settlement... I'm just figuring it is because W can't participate due to her BPD and she can't compromise due to her BPD so she is vacillating between the no-win positions and figuring it better to do what is enjoyable... spend time with OM.

This is extremely one-sided... a Defendant with all the ammunition to demolish the Plaintiff. I wasn't completely positive she had BPD when I requested the psychological evaluation - but her behavior since then has been textbook and I'm fully convinced regardless of whether she receives a diagnosis or not.

This is virtually unheard of... a father in my position in this state would lose in a sole custody bid 99% of the time. Yet it seems like I will prevail primarily due to evidence she has produced and her behavior during the process.

Here is hoping...

D1 was doing well this morning. She got me to pick her up and I went to wipe her nose with a kleenex and she pulled away and ran her nose across my shirt... ha ha. She started babbling and patted me on the chest and said "Da Da" and grinned at me. I had a couple of false starts trying to leave, but eventually she got interested in some of the other children and I was able to go.
