Either the LBS (me) has incorrect perceptions about the three A's being absent, or the WAS has a misperception about them being present (really just the abuse and addiction).
Just thinking out loud.
In your case, I don't think any of the three A's are present. I don't think your W has a mispercetion either. But who knows for sure? Most cases for divorce are the 3 A's, but not all. Maybe there is a 4th category? I am struggling to find an appropriate A word.
At the beginning of my stich, I was comforted by the fact that I didn't believe any of the 3 A's were present. I thought that maybe that meant a greater probability existed the divorced would be busted. Now that I am further along in the detachment process and looking at H setting up mediation after the holidays, I just don't give much thought to the odds anymore.
