Looks like without you reacting, H is messing the whole thing up himself and has nobody to blame! Well, he should blame his idiot L. But he can't blame you because you just ironed shirts and watched Family Guy. I just love that.

Way to go - you are my inspiration of calmness. IS is possible H just doesn't want to have to pay child support? I'm afraid this is why my H claims he needs 50% custody of S. Purely money. As it is, he spend like 2-3 weeknight with S and maybe one weekend day at most. I'm there in the morning, after school, all weekend, on holidays, etc. I'm def. doing more than 50% do how do they justify their calculations?

I think you're doing a great job staying calm. He probably wants to get a reaction to you but will be surprised that all your DBing efforts are creating a calm in the middle of his storm. The calmer you stay, the more his nutty crap can only be his nutty crap.

My H is filing legal separation, but still spending a lot of time at home lately. So I know whay you mean about the filing papers yet coming closer. We are hardly dating, but he is spending "family time". For my H, I think he feels more secure knowing he is protected "if" we have a D, but is still on the fence if that will happen. Having all his legal ducks in a row has actually made him feel a little safer being around us - I think.

Who knows????
