Getting Un"Stuck" - Giving My Burden to God

[MrBond]

cipa,

thanks for the pep talk. I'm cool. Just a wicked backslide.

I don't know whose sitch is worse. Yours, where your W keeps talking to you yet shows no remorse in her actions, or mine where my W is here, yet purposely ignores me because she doesn't want to deal with me and of course has also shown no remorse in terms of her A. Total projection of her unhappiness onto me.

I think AAK is right in saying that she's depressed, but it's compartmentalized so that it's only when she's with me. Or has that "trapped" feeling.

I've called her out on it and while she listens for a second, the moment of clarity drifts away very quickly.

I know I can do this as long as I don't keep getting sucked into her midlife mess.

don't worry about giving me the occasional 2x4. I can take it as well as I can dish it out.

I've been keeping up with your sitch too. I don't know how your W can still be talking to you nicely and at the same time send over the legal papers. Kind of like shaking your hand with one hand and holding a knife in the other. Stick to your guns too.
