I just called my dad to check in. He's angry. Telling me to move out, cut off contact, stop talking to her. W has made herself an opponent. I should not have to live with her. The mediation won't work, it's a rediculous idea. I'll end up the loser. Need to get a lawyer and take her to court. I had just called to say hello.
He's disgusted, really. Said, I don't know how you got yourself in this mess.
I feel very alone.
Well, dropped the kids off wiht my MIL. Asked her, what do you think about all this - she's very discouraged about the situation. She said she was so relieved when it "blew over" 6 years ago, but doesn't look like it's going to blow over now. She said the way it sounded, we're not meeting each other's needs, and W wants a different life, that that she doesn't understand what that's going to be like.
So, dropped by Guitar Center, and played a bunch of guitars. Mm if I wasn't spending money on lawyers... Sat in Starbucks and read a book for awhile. By buddy is out of town this weekend.
Karen, I don't know what to make of it, her following me around talking to me, saying she misses me, asking if she can call over the weekend.
