If I told you that you wife is never ever coming back to you, you need to forget about her and move on .... would you listen to me?
Yes, P17, I would listen to you. I actually believe that to be true. However, I am going to keep DBing against all odds. Because she is "following the script" so closely for WAW/MLC, I am hopeful that DBing has a chance to bring her back. The FOG is thick.
We are a no fault divorce state, so I am not going to stand on the tracks to stop the divorce train. I am just going to be business-like about it and protect myself and do what I think will be best (of the bad options in divorce) for my boys.
On the other hand, I am GALing the best as I can. I have faced reality of single Dad with S4 and S7 custody 50% of the time.
I am amazed at the positive support I have received from old friends, new friends, and friends on this forum.
Marriage is worth it. Our marriage is worth it.
WAW was perturbed at transition for our boys tonight. We had our wires crossed as to where the drop off would take place. I presumed since our standard practice was for the "oncoming" parent to travel across town to get the boys, that is what we would do this afternoon. She thought she was supposed to drop them off at our house. (She came in our house to say goodbye to our boys after a quick look around).
It is hard for me to understand how my WAW is OK with seeing her boys only 50% of the time and holidays every other year from now on. Did a genie cast a spell on her?
I am so looking forward to Christmas with them. A whole week of fun. It will be a white Christmas here in MT.
This situation reminds me so much of the movie Family Man in which the daughter asks Nicolas Cage if the aliens took him. I think the aliens took my W, and the replacement is my WAW now.
