SP - you said: "How does she not see that if, by some fortunate chain of events, we were to start piecing it back together, the fact that so many people in her life -- and remember, this is a woman who never lets people out of her orbit -- believe really negative things about me, that this would be a real complication?
How, for example, would I ever be able to have a cordial relationship with her sister -- her sister, for the gods' sakes! -- who now believes really horrible things about me. And why wouldn't she believe them? What reason would WAW have to lie to her own sister -- who would presumably support her no matter what?"
This is very simple. She has NO intention of EVER being with you again. Take that for what its worth, but that is the REASON. Why search any further for any reason? It is perfectly logical.
And secondly, you keep bringing up that she said X to her sister when you clearly said Y...but in fact, you did not talk directly TO her sister and you don't know what was said. Furthermore, you keep p*ssyfooting around about alimony, when you know very clearly that your WAW WANTS YOU TO STATE AN AMOUNT, and by not stating an amount, you are forcing her to assume the worst.
I have said the above a couple of times already on your thread but you seem determined to demonize what she is saying and doing, versus seeing it how it looks from the outside.
