TDR,

You seem to be handling a difficult situation with dignity. We all back pedal and regress and there are times when the despair hits you. And there are times when the anger comes out. It's damn hard to stay above the fray.

My W exhibits a similar sense of entitlement. She has filed and is a talking about buying a small house, etc.

Living together makes it tougher. There are times when you see a glimpse of the person your W used to be and then the coldness slaps you upside the head.

I also worry about the toll a dysfunctional H-W relationship has on our kids. They're already hurting.
