I've been so busy lately, I haven't spent much time online.

Got the actual divorce papers this week. She claims in them the separation was my idea and is due to my actions (my lawyer says she claims this in order to get a better deal on the custody, since if it was her idea and due to her actions, I might get a better deal).

Anyway, it was depressing reading. She also accused me of abuse and a host of other things - as my lawyer said, this is fairly common because it will make the court more sympathetic to her.

Well, I have 30 days to file a response. But I have to get a tone of paperwork in order to do it - and I have to work.

Somewhere, and I hate to admit it, a switch was flipped in my brain. I finally became convinced the relationship is over. I'm still DB'ing and GAL'ing and all that and trying to act as if there is still a chance to save things.

But her parents keep telling her that I'm this evil, selfish con artist and that the changes I've made are all lies to trick her into liking me again. And she's with them 24/7.
