there is a high degree of Shmedlapitude in Herself.
Registered a 8.7 on the Schmedlap Scale. (Score could change since she still hasn't stuck the landing.)

Well thanks for asking @JonF. Themselves are doing middling-well. They've slowly got adjusted to the idea of "2 houses," though Boy Child is less adaptive than younger Girl Child. The Boy still lays the "this divorce is STUPID" law down, while The Girl concurs. She's revealing more of her sadness and struggle, which is good because she was bottling it up. But on the other hand they do get genuinely excited about going to their mother's house and seeing her (they spent rather less time with her than with me during the marriage). It certainly could be worse.
So as I suspected, WAW Herself was on the run. And she ran right into the arms of Signore il Secondo. Which is okay. But it does go to show that, had I swooped in and scooped her up -- DB'ers dream! She's ready to be reeled in! -- all I would have scooped up is Old WAW, last year's D-Bomb Special model. She hasn't re-evaluated. Her pain came from lack of sex. But her "glorious" nights with SiS have squared that right away.
My Mouthpiece and I are putting together a settlement proposal that's sure to singe the hairs in WAW's nose.
She certainly isn't going to be awarded Employee of the Month for her recent behavior but starting a fight with lawyers isn't going to do anything but make the lawyers richer. Fight for what's fair but not to get even.

@polly - know what's funny? I never go to your thread and attack or insult you.
@Lotus - I actually think it's just coincidental.
@O'dog - It's actually a very good deal for Ms. Formerly Mrs, but when she sees the numbers all in black and white in their many digity glory she'll plotz.
Your wife's sexual exploits are none of your business.
What she does in her personal life is none of your business.
What you do in your personal life is none of her business.
Letting her friends tell you this crap doesn't do a thing for you.
Become healthy in mind, body and spirit. Be happy that the kids get to spend more time with their mom.
It's tough. It's hard. It's a shitty thing to go through. Give yourself good boundaries. This process is tough enough without willingly walking through toxic sludge.
And with the lawyer... go for the fair settlement. No one wins in divorce. We lost all our savings, bonds and stocks because my former spouse became angry and went to an exorbitant lawyer ($650 an hour, his paralegal $350). And I was partly to blame because I didn't know how to let go, fear ruled me. Anger ruled him. Both negative emotions destroyed our financial security. Beware.
